Date Night Ideas

Last week my wife came up with this brilliant idea for a date night. We did a progressive dinner at The Avenue at White Marsh. These kinds of things are also fun when you have a group of people and you go from house to house or perhaps a fast food hoping dinner.

Our dinner began at Red Brick Station for an appetizer which filled us up so much that when we arrived at Friday’s we ended up splitting another appetizer. Amy may suggest that it was the Stout beer at Red Brick that filled me up so much, but the combo of bread in a bottle and crab dip was too much to pass up. Friday’s also has a pretty rockin Strawberry Lemonade, so I was quite content with that as well. We concluded our progressive meal at Chili’s with the molten chocolate cake and coffee followed by another treat, Nacho Libre staring Jack Black.

We were able to enjoy some good food, the night air as we walked along the Avenue from destination to destination and more than a few good laughs. My favorite line from the movie, “Those guys don’t think I know a buttload of crap about the Gospel. But I do!” And that is one of the great things about this movie – despite the hokiness – the answer for the heroine of the movie is found in God’s strength. Always a great reminder especially for a couple who makes their relationship with Jesus Christ the focal point of their love for one another.
