Jason and I have become accustomed to going out together every Friday night since living in Prague but since we have moved back to the States we have only managed to go out to dinner alone twice. We sent the kids down to my parent's house for the weekend. Friday night we just relaxed and Jason worked on Saturday but Saturday night we went out to dinner. We headed into Boston's North End for dinner at one of our favorite restaurants, Giacomo's. It was so wonderful to be in the city again. While living in Hopkinton is nice and scenic there is just something about city life that is special as well. We walked to the restaurant and enjoyed being in the city. We had a fabulous meal of lobster ravioli for me and homemade fusilli with lobster and shrimp for Jason. We love Giacomo's food and the hustle of the restaurant. It is definitely not a relaxing restaurant but the hustle/bustle and small space make you feel like you are in an Italian kitchen.
We followed dinner up with cappuccino and cannoli at Mike's Pastry. I don't know if we have just been away from Mike's for too long but it seemed like the cannolis were much bigger than we remembered. We could have just split one they were so big. No matter how long it has been though since going to Mike's the cannoli was just as good as I remember them! It was so nice to have time alone to just talk about life. We are so busy here that life seems to fly by and we haven't had time to catch up with each other. It was definitely a much needed break from the speed of life. Thanks to mom and dad for taking care of the kids!
