Fancy Pants Dinner

So we just got back from our upscale dining experience. It was one of the best meals we've ever had, and it'd better be for $102.00! First of all, the view was beautiful, even though we didn't score one of the window seats. You could still see all the street lights a-glow. I had grilled salmon with a oyster mushroom risotto which was to die for. Chris had a steak with crab covered in some sauce with a baked potato and green beans. It was meat so he couldn't go wrong. I also had two very delicious mint mojitos. Mmmm....

If you look really hard at the bottom right of the photo you can just barely see my salmon. The mojito must have been taking the photo.
After dinner we stopped by the famous Powell's Books. It's a bookstore that takes up the entire street corner. They sell new and used books so their inventory is unbelievable.
I found some hilarious gift cards there that I bought from some poor undeserving souls.

Now we're absolutely stuffed and ready for bed. We have a long day ahead of us tomorrow.

Ahhh, the things you can do when vacationing without small children.
Fancy restaurant....huh, what's that?!

Don't worry, Jessie...

I feel the same way. In college, "fancy restaurant" is anything that doesn't deliver.
