Double Dates

Grammie and Pea are staying an extra day! Hooray!

I spent all afternoon yesterday getting a much needed hair color and cut and delivering a meal to a new mom friend. We all then got dressed and headed out on double dates. Grammie, Pea and Mazen went to Citizen Burger for french fries, and Matt and I went to Red Pump Kitchen for a quiet romantic dinner : ) Each group had a blast!

Matt and I started with cocktails – a Lavender Bellini for me and the Jefferson’s Julep for him.

2015-05-27 18.07.53 2015-05-27 18.07.57

We had the perfect table by the open window and waved at the other group as they walked by!

2015-05-27 18.08.10

I had a kale salad with sweet potato chips to start, and Matt ordered the beef carpaccio. Both tasted so lemony fresh!

2015-05-27 18.13.34 2015-05-27 18.13.40

Our main entrees were a HUGE hit – soft shell crab for Matt and grouper for me. The black on my plate was fermented black garlic and was sooooo delicious!

2015-05-27 18.33.11

Our dinner was over too fast, so we went to 22 Brix, a little wine room and satellite tasting from for Ankida Ridge Vineyards. We enjoyed tasting the flight and ordered a glass of port to share.

2015-05-27 19.25.17

…over a game of checkers! Matt is the smarter gamer of the two of us, so I was quite happy to beat him in my first game in probably 15 years!

2015-05-27 19.29.49

We met up with our friends and hung out on our porch into the night. A very happy Wednesday!

We just finished eggs, toast, mango and coffee for breakfast and are gearing up for a run and possibly a shopping trip!

      No definitely not! Send me a screen shot or the name of the advertiser next time so I can hunt them down!

        Hi Kath!

        FYI – I get these pop up ads regularly on your site and find them so tacky/annoying! (I assumed you were aware of them.)

          May 28, 2015 at 2:48 pm

          Ack no! But if no one tells me about them then I can’t hunt down the advertiser to remove them. Please send me either screen shots or the names of the brands and we will investigate. I never want to have pop up ads or anything that auto plays.

            Hi Kath, just wanted to let you know since you’re looking for feedback, that you do actually have some auto-play ads that show up. I can’t give you specifics as I scroll past them as fast as possible but i’d always assumed the advertising team or whoever you work with would have those details – is that not the case? Clearly I know nothing about online advertising! 🙂 You’ve mentioned working with a guy to fine-tune everything when this mobile site started, but it doesn’t seem like much has changed. As a longtime reader, it’s pretty frustrating & honestly sometimes I skip visiting your site for a few days because I don’t want to be annoyed by all the ads. Sorry, just being truthful. Thanks for being accepting of feedback 🙂

              Thanks for sharing. I do need to know the brands/ads that are offensive or my guy won’t know about them. He does do tests on KERF from time to time, but the ads don’t always talk. I appreciate any feedback you guys have!

    So fun! And that looks delicious – tempted to try a homemade version of that kale salad with sweet potato chips.

    I have to say, those breakfast eggs look absolutely delicious. I really need to re-watch the video you posted a while ago (or was it just a post?) about your egg technique. But it’s probably the quality of the eggs I guess,

    This is random, but what kind of nail polish is that? I love it!

      It’s just a coral paint with Birchbox glitter polish on top!

    Your nails are adorable! Are they Jamberry? I am so curious to try them it I’m scared they will ruin my actual nails…What is your experience with this?

    Reply
    • KathEats says

      May 28, 2015 at 4:51 pm

      Jamberry didn’t ruin my nails at all (unlike gel!)

      And they are actually just paint and glitter on top!

    I have never seen any pop-up ads and I have been following your blog daily for a few years. I saw the comments posted previously and am assuming that their computers may have a virus that’s causing it.

        Not a virus – but I recently traded laptops at work, and now the pop-ups show. My previous laptop had different software and pop-up blockers loaded onto it (not by me, or I’d try to figure out how to load them!) and I think that’s why some people see them and some don’t. They’re annoying but it doesn’t stop me from reading 🙂

    Just to let you know since you asked:
    Right now there is a covergirl/Walmart pop-up with Katy Perry on my screen. I have seen this ad multiple times over the last week or so.
