Ben and I are bad at going out on dates since we became parents.\u00a0 I could count on one hand the number of dates we have had since last summer.\u00a0 Let’s see, The A Team, Inception, Scott Pilgrim, the zoo date, . . .\u00a0 that might be it.\u00a0 Did I miss any, Ben?\u00a0 Maybe we went to Virgilio’s once without Jack?<\/p>\n

Luckily, I have an awesome sister who helps us overcome this.\u00a0 For Christmas we received tickets to Colorado Ballet with babysitting included!\u00a0 Today I cashed in.<\/p>\n

\"Romeo<\/a>
We got all dressed up to see a matinee of Romeo and Juliet.\u00a0 Fantastic show, if a little light on the dancing and heavy on the emoting as it wound down.\u00a0 Sumptuous costumes, interesting choreography, and a live orchestra.\u00a0 So much fun.\u00a0 I only wish they could have gotten together in the end \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

After the show we walked a few blocks down 14th to a new restaurant, Euclid Hall.<\/a>\u00a0 We were surprised when they told us it was 5280 Restaurant Week!\u00a0 We usually look forward to this every year but hadn’t given it any thought this time around.\u00a0 Participating restaurants offer a special menu of options for a dinner for two for $52.80.\u00a0 This place had most of their menu on the list.\u00a0 We took advantage of it and had an awesome meal.\u00a0 We ordered:<\/p>\n

Pickle Sampler<\/b> (Sweet Bread and Butter Pickles, Hops Infused Pickle, Hot, Spicy and Very Sincere Pickles, Seasonal Pickles)
Roasted Cauliflower Salad,<\/b> shishito pepper marmalade, Haystack goat cheese, scallions, tempura crunchies
Beef Short Rib Kielbasa\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>
Boudin Noir, <\/b>avec curry e aubergine
Roasted Duck Poutine, <\/b>duck gravy, black pepper, Wisconsin cheddar curd\u00a0<\/b>
Griddled Camembert and Peach Preserve Sandwich,<\/b> Waldorf salad
Red Velvet Cupcake,<\/b> 7 minute frosting
Funnel Cake Fried Bananas,<\/b> peanut butter caramel<\/p>\n

So yum.\u00a0 We got home in time to chat with ma soeur for a bit and put Jack to bed.\u00a0 Thank you again, Amanda, for a wonderful afternoon out!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
