Cozy Date Night

Once in a while the stars align and H and I get a surprise date night.  It happened last Saturday when all three girls had sleepovers and we were suddenly alone.  It was brisk and windy outside and all signs pointed to a cozy date night with some Netflix and chill. Instead we ventured out for a few drinks, a little dinner and actual conversation followed by us cramming handfuls of popcorn into your mouths as we watched ‘The Girl on the Train’.

I knew that my newest cozy sweater, my latest leather jacket, skinny jeans and booties were all I wanted to wear that night.

When the night was over I realized that my favorite part was before dinner. The restaurant had an almost two hour wait and we didn’t care.  We sat in the outdoor heated patio, had a few drinks and snacks and had conversations that went beyond our work together.  Topics that ranged from Amy Schumer and what books we are reading and our current favorite podcasts to gender roles in history and today.  Sometimes you need conversation that goes beyond the daily logistics to make you realize why you still like hanging out with the other person, am I right?
