When presenting as Marian, it's always nice to have an occasion to dress up. Valentine's Day was it for us. And I know I enjoyed doing so more than RQS today.

Both of us were glad to stay inside most of the day. Saturdays are often a day of rest for us, and we do that well. What can I say about two seniors who know how much energy they have to spend, and want to spend it wisely?
Around 5 pm, we both started getting ready to go out. Both of us had red dresses at the ready, and we were ready to wear them. Both of us did our makeup, put on our jewelry, and did everything we needed to look our best when we went to the restaurant. If the weather had been colder, I'd have worn my flannel dress. If the weather had been warmer, I'd have chosen a lighter dress. However, the sweater dress I chose was perfect for the evening - and a few minutes later, we were going out the door.
We made it to the restaurant 20 minutes early, finding an almost perfect parking spot in front of the restaurant. When we entered, the host remembered us from previous visits and made a table available to us before our reservation time. Then, we got started with dining. In front of us was a proper table setting, with the napkin folded like a red heart. It was the perfect setting for a Valentine's Day meal. And both the food and service was as good as we expected - perfect.

After dinner, we went to the supermarket to refresh the soda supply in the refrigerator, then homeward for the evening. It was a nice day, with the high point being our V-Day dinner.
