So What Do You Suggest?

On Saturday, February 27, Jim and I will have been married for five years. Yippee skippy! And, my, my how time flies. :-)

We don't do much eating out. Too expensive - and I'm a bit of a cheapskate about that.

But this is an important milestone. So where would you go? I love seafood. And Jim loves steak or most kinds of beef.

We could possibly go to a Chinese restaurant and get both.

I think there are some fancy pants restaurants in town that would fit the bill.

But what do you think?

it wouldn't fit either, but if you lived here I would invite you to come eat at our fundraising spaghetti dinner at church Saturday evening.
Happy Anniversary!

Marsha,
If I lived closer I would come to your spaghetti dinner. :)

Marilyn M. Feb 26, 2010, 12:28am UTC

We would come to that!

Marilyn M. Feb 26, 2010, 12:46am UTC

Thanks, Marsha.

Congratulations! I am sure you will enjoy yourself no matter where you eat at. :)

I have been wanting to go to Red Lobster. The commercials are so appealing.

Marilyn M. Feb 26, 2010, 12:28am UTC

They are. Some of the new shrimp dishes look yummy.

Marilyn M. Feb 26, 2010, 12:46am UTC

Thanks, Connie!

Do you have a Stuart Anderson's Square Cow Fun Bar? They sell awesome steaks and yummy seafood. I used to eat there all the time in my twenties, but my city does not have one of these restaurants.

Congrats by the way Marilyn!!

Marilyn M. Feb 26, 2010, 12:46am UTC

Hmmm. Not sure I've ever heard of that.

Marilyn M. Feb 26, 2010, 12:46am UTC

Thanks, Monica.

Jim W. Feb 27, 2010, 12:34am UTC

Thanks, Monica. But I have to say the same as Marilyn. I've never heard of that one. Which means, most likely, none of them around here. Thanks for trying, though! :-)

Go somewhere like a nice steakhouse. They always have a seafood menu. Call ahead to make sure. I am sure no matter where you go you will have a wonderful time.

Happy Anniversary and many more ahead!!!!

Thanks, Nurse Nancy.

Happy Anniversary, you two! I'm glad to see you have made it this far! May you have many more, filled with happy days, good memories, and peaceful moments together.

I would suggest Red Lobster. I had a superb steak there recently with Sara, who loves seafood (I can't eat it.) We were both well pleased with our selections.

Blessings,

Bud

Marilyn M. Feb 26, 2010, 10:46am UTC

Thanks, Bud.

Jim W. Feb 27, 2010, 12:37am UTC

That's another good idea, don't you think, honey? Thanks, Bud!

Marilyn M. Feb 27, 2010, 4:00am UTC

Maybe. Some of the new stuff in commercials looks good. Otherwise, they used to use too much breading for my taste.

I would try a good Chinese restaurant, they usually have sea food and dishes that feature steak.

Marilyn M. Feb 26, 2010, 10:47am UTC

We might lean that direction. There are a few good ones around here. And one even has my favorite food - Crab Rangoon.

Jim W. Feb 27, 2010, 12:38am UTC

Is that one the Sizzling Wok, sweetie? I'm trying to remember.

Marilyn M. Feb 27, 2010, 4:07am UTC

Might be.

Happy Anniversary, Marilyn!!

We like to go to Landry's because of their oysters, but, they've got great steaks, too!! Outback Steakhouse is pretty good, too! I would've suggest Texas Land and Cattle, but, you don't live in Texas.

Marilyn M. Feb 26, 2010, 10:48am UTC

Thanks, Janie. There's an Outback not far from here. Hmmm.

Oh, TL&C is a great reason to move back to TX. :-)

Jim W. Feb 27, 2010, 12:40am UTC

Sounds like our front runners so far are Chinese (Sizzling Wok?), Red Lobster or Outback. What do you think, honey? We're getting some good suggestions here.

Janie E. Feb 27, 2010, 12:45am UTC

Yes, my hubby took me to Texas Land and Cattle for my birthday, last year.

You're very welcomed, Marilyn!

I don't know if we have a Ruth Chris Steakhouse around here, Diana, but that sounds like a good deal if we do. Thanks!

Congrats I would find a steakhouse that serves meals with seafood and steak then you are both happy

Marilyn M. Feb 27, 2010, 4:08am UTC

Thanks, Renee.

My sister and brother-in-law took me out to Chinese last night. It was yummy, so I'm fully supportive of that!
