dinner Sat. night was out with my sister for my birfday. I’m planning to write it up in the SF/Bay Area section of HO. It was a wonderful meal, good cocktails and bubbles, sat outside in a lovely space, and afterwards i came home and had cocktails in AND out (it had been a year since we’d gone to a bar!) with the BF (but still outside). Picked up a late night snack - chorizo gordita from a street vendor. Had some more bubbly back at home - hey, it was my bday! Sun., he and i had our normal fries brunch but out this time (again, it had been a year!), and sat outside on a beautiful day, took a short walk, and then i napped until dinner time (i guess i was a little hung and aperol spritz and wine at brunch didn’t help like i thought it would 
. Dinner was the BF’s smashburgers and MOAR fries that i couldn’t even finish - i guess i do have a fries limit after all. smashburgers were inhaled, however. Crashed at 9:30.
more festivities to come for both of us (his birthday is coming up) - dinner out Thurs., then i’m away for the weekend with friends for our yearly Stinson Beach trip, then dinner out for both of us next week for his bday. i can feel the “yoga” pants getting tighter again…
tonight he lightened things up a bit with a fridge clean-out and a Mostly Meatless Monday - he’d made meatballs for some future dinners for himself when I’m out but shared one apiece for us tonight in BTB beef broth, with all the other veggies and toasted focaccia.
ETA: here’s the link to the review of the bday dinner out if anyone’s interested.
