Date Day!

This week we had pizza. Again. I don't think we will ever get sick of Date Day pizza.
This week was Godfather's Pizza. Apparently, there were people that were saying that Godfather's had better taco pizza than Happy Joe's.

We had to see if that was true.
(Hint: it wasn't)

The pizza took kind of a long time to reach our little table 40.


But then we could explore our surroundings! Like how the tablecloth was glued to the table!


Yeah, it took a loooong time to get our food.


And we left nearly half of it there.


Oh well, Date Day is always a blast with Adam. I tried a new place and reaffirmed my love for Happy Joe's and their fantastic pizza!

Date Day!

I haven't done a Date Day post in a loooong time. Adam and I still take a day each week to just hang out with each other, which is something that we both look forward to every week, since we've been so busy we hardly have any time to just chill!
This Date Day turned into a mini weekend! 
We decided to get a hotel room for a night, and then have a "staycation". 
I'm so glad we did!
But, before we left with our overnight bags, I had to snap a couple pictures of James and Nora. They are just so damn adorable.



The next morning, while Adam was conked out, I made myself some coffee in the hotel room. I brought my own mug (I can't help it, I love all of my mugs) and I also brought my latest obsession.
This stuff is amazing.
I'm in love. 


Here it is up close and personal with my whipped topping coffee.
Oh yeeeaaaahhh......



After breakfast, we just we around town all day, looking at the shops, drinking more coffee, Adam reminding me that I shouldn't buy any more coffee mugs.
Party pooper.


Then we went to one of our favorite pizza places in Fargo, Spicy Pie.
Adam loves his pizza.





Pizza is always a good choice.


This Date Day weekend was just what we both needed, time to sleep, chill, eat and spend some time alone with each other. I'm so glad we have actually kept this up, it's so unlike us.

Date Day!

I haven't done a Date Day post in a long time!
Well, we have one every Monday, and we switch off on who is taking charge. 
This week was Adam's turn.

We started off with having lunch at Olive Garden. I used to not enjoy this place, because I didn't like any of the dishes! That is a way to turn you off to a restaurant. The food isn't terrible, but I always found the pasta overcooked, and it seemed you paid more than what you should. 

But now I don't mind the good ol' Garden. I have found a dish that I love, every time! 
The standard Soup and Salad. Zuppa Toscana, please!
Yum.
Adam usually has the Spaghetti and Meatballs, but today, he felt risky. He went with Cheesy Penne, Peppers and Sausage. He definitely enjoyed it!

After lunch, we went to the new movie out, Prometheus.
I really liked it! I have only seen the first Alien movie, and I think I only saw it once. Which means, I don't remember a damn thing about what happens. I was worried that I might not be able to appreciate this movie, since I didn't remember the first movie, and haven't seen the others in the Alien franchise. 
I didn't have to worry, it was excellent!
Adam lost feeling in one hand from my iron grip, but he says that he'll live. 

A good date day. I need to remember to take some pictures!

I'm not improving on that, am I?

Nope.

Obsession

Adam and I had friends over this week. For dinner and drinks, even!
We don't do that often.
We were excited.

I made pizza for our food, and a good time was had by all.
Abby and her hubby are good people.
(By the way, her blog is fantastic, you should check it out!)

This household has been on such a pizza kick lately.
 I've lost count on how many times I've made it in the last two weeks. 
It's just so simple to prepare, and in only 20 minutes, you've got a delicious meal that speaks to your inner child.
It couldn't be easier!

I usually make pizza the same way every time: half pepperoni (Adam) and half margherita (Hannah). 
It's hard to improve on perfection, but last night, I wanted to experiment. 
I was ready to go wild!
It was necessary to use up what I had in my fridge 
(story of my cooking life, I really need to plan meals better so I don't have food so close to peril). 
The only ingredients I had to work with were: 
onion, mozzarella, and parmesan.

Oh My God.

I don't know if I can eat pizza the same way again. I'm not trying to toot my own horn or anything, but this was absolutely scrumptious. 
I made sure to caramelize the onion, and I just added some slices of mozzarella and sprinkled the parmesan. You can't call it a recipe really. 
Just awesomeness in your mouth.


Sorry about the bad photo. I made this damn near midnight, so there was no light to speak of.

Now, go and eat some pizza. 
Respect the art form.

Delicious.
