eating dessert first....

Had a rookie day yesterday - with the hubby off to work, and the boy off to the ball game with a friend - which left me, with..

A GIRLFRIEND DAY!

We started with a yummy lunch of red beans and rice with andouille sausage at my house. We relaxed, and then bummed over to see another friend's progress on her kitchen reno, then headed back to my place for movies, and scrapbooking, and girl time.

When dinner came around, we headed into town to the local BBQ place. Mis-communication behind the counter ended up meaning they brought us our shared dessert BEFORE our meal.

What a novel concept.

How often do you splurge and have dessert at a restaurant? Normally, you're too full! This way, we were able to endulge, splurge on that shared dessert, and THEN worry about not finishing our dinner.

And it just felt so WRONG. But yet, SO GOOD.

That warm brownie sundae set the tone for our entire meal. And was the perfect way to start the end of our relaxed rookie girlfriend day.

We need to do it more often. Have dessert BEFORE our meal. And in life, put the fun things first sometimes... cuz life is too short.
