Sooooo last weekend was awesome. On Friday Mitch and I went to an Italian place in Poulsbo. We had a very fun dinner! The food was just alright, not fantastic but we'll probably go there again some time. We came to the conclusion that Italian food on the east coast will probably always be better than it is on the west. After dinner we went to Cold Stone!
Randomly here's a couple tips for servers at restaurants (serving to people such as Mitch and myself).
1. Be polite.
2. Don't make us wait forever to speak to us when we sit down. Even saying "I'll be right with you" is better than saying nothing and ignoring us.
3. Keep our drinks filled. I'm nursing, so I'm always thirsty and want my drink asap. Also, Mitch is usually always open to trying a new beer or a beer special you are running. If you don't offer it, it's your loss.
4. We love eating a lot. If you suggest an appetizer or dessert we pretty much always say yes. If you don't ask though, or bring the check before we are done with our meal, that's totally your loss on a better tip. Andd if there's some delicious chocolate thing I want and you didn't give me the opportunity to eat it, it will lessen your tip.
5. Be friendly. I'm out to dinner to have fun with my family or husband to have fun, not to deal with whatever made you unhappy that day. It is your job to be nice to us.
6. We are awesome tippers if you're an awesome server.
On Saturday, I had a rugby game. It went pretty well. I had an awesome run and scored in the second half, so that was cool. However, one of the girls chasing me was 3/4 bear. I didn't see her face, but she was growling behind me. Like legit growling. Not like huffing and puffing while running. I'm absolutely certain that if I didn't score she would have chewed off my limbs right there on the pitch. Needless to say it made me run faster. I need to pick up my aggression and lose my hesitations though. After the game we bought a volleyball/badminton net and played that and barbequed some yummy dinner. It was beautiful outside and it was fun. I am truly thankful that my husband and I enjoy each others company so much.
Eden can float on her back by herself now :) She's the only kid in her lesson that can do it, and easily the best swimmer overall. Her teacher has gotten better as well. Mitchell is trying to stand by himself now. I think he'll walk by the time he's 1. He's clapping now too, which is so freakin cute. I feel like he does something new every day. They grow so fast. People always say that, but holy cow is it true.
Some more randomness real quick-
1. Wrinkly skin feeling is gross and I hate it. Doing the dishes and living in a place that drizzles rain 80% of the time make for plenty of wrinkly skin...EW.
2. Laundry is never ever ever ever ending this house. Between rugby, working out, uniforms, baby drool, mud, and everything else under the sun I am always washing, drying and folding clothes. *sigh*
3. Oz is a messed up show, yet some how I keep watching it.
Tomorrow is game day! Last one of the season. I made ambrosia salad for the social afterward. Yumm!!
