Grandma and Grandpa stayed home last night with Poppy so Rockford and I could go out for dinner and a movie. It was the best date we’ve had in a long time. In fact, I think it was the only date we’ve had in a long time. We went to Maggiano’s and had a wonderful meal (Veal & Mushroom Ravioli for me, and Chicken Marsala for Rockford, and fabulous little chocolate truffles “on the house”!), and then we went to see “Stranger Than Fiction” (made me cry). The movie wasn’t until 10:10, so we lingered over dinner and talked and talked, and it was just lovely.
