Date Night

Greg's in Miramichi this weekend so we had a weekend date night on Friday (he left on Saturday). We checked out an art show downtown that was put on by a woman who is an art teacher (but not a school art teacher) and she showcased her student's work.

There was a great turn out, cars were wrapped around the block and the venue was packed.

We hadn't played crib in awhile, perhaps it's because I might kick Greg's butt...and I did on Friday. To give him credit he made it past the skunk line and most of the time I don't win. But it's good to celebrate when I win by so much!

I tried a new chocolate mousse, ingredients: dark chocolate, coconut cream (the thicker coconut in the coconut milk can), cornstarch, water, eggs, vanilla. It was pretty delicious and will make its way into my recipe book
