Happy Valentine’s Day to everyone. My Valentine has taken off for parts unknown so it’s just the cat and I for dinner. Boo hoo. Actually we already had our Valentine meal. We went to the Blue Bird Bistro on Saturday night, and had just a fine dinner. (We had a coupon, naturally.) I would honestly say that was one of the best dinners I can remember eating. Donette had a ribeye, and I had the bison tenderloin, both of which were just awesome. If I’ve ever had a buffalo steak before I don’t remember it, but it was great. Granted, a good part of the flavor may have come from the 1/2 stick of butter it was soaked in, but it was delicious at any rate. Everything was so good we didn’t want to quit eating, so we ordered dessert too.
So, what else did we do this weekend… Well, not a whole lot. Friday night we went to 75th Street and had a pizza. Something of a trend as of late. Saturday afternoon I met Munkirs & Belanger up at the new Bike Source on 95th, mostly just to check out the new digs. Quite a store, although I tend to agree with Bruce that they may be a little optimistic with their inventory. Are you really going to sell dozens and dozens of $5,000 bikes in Kansas City? Who knows. Not to me they ain’t, I know that much. Speaking of Bruce, I was pleasantly surprised to see him there. My first thought was that he was going to take up cycling with us this Spring. Fat Back Cycling is always looking for new team members. Turned out he was just there to make fun of our hobby though, darn.
Sunday morning Donette drove to the downtown airport and participated in the “Love 2 Run” event. I would have joined her, but I do not “Love 2 Run,” which automatically disqualifies me. It sounded like a good time though, or at least as good of a time as exercise can be. After that she hauled me down to the Brooksider so I could enjoy the nice-ish weather on the patio, and she headed out of town for some kind of class she is taking. I will be accepting any type of charitable entertainment for the next two evenings. Oh, and you have to come get me too, I don’t have a car.
So how’s that one-car thing working out for you? 😀
Ahhhhh, it’s OK. Maybe I didn’t think so last night when I was walking home from the Brooksider. Apparently I didn’t factor in the evening temperature drop when I left the house without a jacket.
