Of course yesterday was filled with even more snow. I really didn’t think it was possible to have such a horrible winter. In some areas outside of my apartment the snowbanks are almost double my height!
Because of this crazy weather, Conor and I’s Valentine’s Day plans were cancelled. 🙁 While I was really looking forward to going into Boston, we still had the perfect day. We went to Joey’s Bar and Grill for dinner and it was phenomenal. We were so lucky that we could just walk in without a reservation, and we didn’t even have to wait!
After filling up on the most delicious Italian bread I have ever had (oops), I ordered the short rib with asparagus and garlic mashed potatoes on my mom’s recommendation. It definitely lived up to my expectations.
CFab had the New York Strip Steak with french fries and asparagus.
We were so stuffed that we didn’t have room for dessert. Instead, we stopped at Price Chopper and picked up two pints of Ben & Jerry’s for later.
We came back to my apartment, took a food coma induced nap, and then started watching Breaking Bad. We have been looking for a new series for a little while now and I think we will enjoy this one!
Since the dinner plans were Conor’s gift to me, I decided to make him a surprise breakfast this morning. I made red velvet chocolate chip pancakes, sausage, and coffee. I also surprised CFab with a copy of Men’s Health magazine and one of his favorite smoothies waiting at the breakfast table.
The pancakes were absolutely delicious, but weren’t the prettiest thing I have ever made. I may have also set the smoke alarms off at 8AM and woke up all of my roommates and completely ruined the surprise of breakfast, but it was still a perfect way to wrap up our Valentine’s Day. 🙂
