Weekend Wrap-Up

This weekend was all about relaxin and good eatin. We went out to eat @ The Butcher Shop (they are known for their steaks) Saturday evening. I had been before but Z had not been so off we went. I opted to try the salmon this go round instead of steak. The salmon itself was good but the hollandaise sauce that you could use to eat with it.....no so much. It tasted like melted butter with a little cream added to it. I have had the sauce before at Morton's (compliments of my big sis. I was a broke college student at the time and could not afford to eat there on my Wal-Mart paycheck) and lemme tell ya it tasted nothing like that. So anyway, I just ate my vegetables and sopped up the salmon with the brown rice and called it a day. To this day, the best salmon I have ever had was at Outback....I kid you not. The thing is huge (you really can't eat it all in one sitting unless you have gone all day without eating) and the sauce to accompany it is great!

So after that, we went to the "dollar movie". Actually it's only a dollar before 6. The after six price has increased from $1.50 to $1.75...bastards!! lol Z wanted to see "Fantastic Four:Rise of the Silver Surfer". Nothing like seeing a crappy movie at a cheap price....can't really complain about that right? Right! Yeah, that was until bey bey's kids, nieces, and nephews decided to come in. Oh lawd! Why?! From the time they walked through the door all you heard was talking. There was a couple sitting to the left of us. The guy kept telling the kids to shut the hell up! Of course they kept talking. I get up and go get Mr. Policeman and tell him he needs to get them to shut up or kick 'em out. So he comes in....stands there and "monitors" and then tells them to be quiet. They keep talkin but eventually get a little quieter. Mr. Policeman leaves and they start back up. I just about to turn around when Z turned around and was like "Look here. I don't know about ya'll but other people in here came to watch a movie. Ya'll need to take that sh*t up to the front row and get somewhere and be still or get the hell on." Don't ya'll know those chil'ren got quiet as a mouse? The man over to the left of us was crackin up laughing. I was kinda embarrased, then I was like....what for? ha ha. They left about 15 minutes after that....thank goodness. Not that the movie was all that good, but dagnabit we came to watch a movie not listen to them yip and yap about a whole bunch of nothing.

Sunday we just hung out around the house. Z put some steaks on the grill and I made some squash with mushrooms in olive oil like they had at the restaurant the evening before (minus the zucchini). After that it was time for football and I retired to the bedroom to watch my shows.
I missed the "Big Love" season finale cause we only have one box in the house.....I ordered another one Friday for the bedroom. Thank goodness for repeats as well because I will be watching it from the comforts of my bed this evening.

I've been thinking about what I wanna do for my birthday. I know I don't want a party...strange I know but it's just not my thing. I want to go out of town for the weekend but have planned NOTHING. We tossed around some places that we could maybe drive to Friday and stay the weekend (even though my b-day is technically Thursday). I considered St. Louis since my big sis is there (and currently my mom is too visitin)and take in some of the sights but I have seen them all. Plus going to St. Louis is not really getting away to me since I have family that lives there. I don't know we'll see but I do know I will be doing something....I just don't know what that is yet. I'll probably surf the web today and see if there's anything interesting going on in the surrounding areas since I don't start work until tomorrow.

How about ya'll? How was your weekend? I guess I could just go to your blogs and see for myself huh? lol

Have a good day!
