Cheap Date! Take Two
We had the opportunity on Friday night to enjoy the second installment of our Cheap Date! Series. We enjoyed dinner at Adelino's followed by a Civic Theatre performance. 
Adelino's is a local tapas-style restaurant with lots of different and interesting things. Josh hadn't eaten there yet and we had a gift certificate that we'd gotten at the silent auction late last year, so we headed out before our show.
Here's Josh taking a taste of wine. They let me try it first in this tiny wine glass and I thought it was funny seeing him with it. Don't I have an adorable Valentine?!
And here is me with their signature Sangria. Unfortunately, it was too cold for me to be able to really enjoy it (because of the dental work I had done that morning). I had to drink it from a straw which didn't work out too well...sangria is for sipping, not for straw-drinking!! I learned that really quickly!
The food was really good! And different. Every time I go, I love to get the goat cheese marinara sauce. It's nice and spicy (which Josh loves) but really good.
Here is a vegetable medley, it was also really good:
Here is the Mahi Mahi skewer. The glaze on top was fantastic:
Our favorite part of the main courses was this sausage-stuffed pepper. Mmmmmm...
After dinner, we went to the Civic Theatre to see A Raisin in the Sun. We laughed because the average age of the people in the audience had to have been 70. There was a sea of white and grey hair!! I took a picture of it, but was afraid that someone might stumble upon this and be offended. :) But the show was good and we enjoyed our little date night. The Civic tickets were also from the silent auction, so in total, we spent less than $25 for a pretty fun date night! 
It's nice to change things up a bit. We get so used to doing the same things, goin to the same places, so our cheap dates are a fun way to switch it up.
