Cheap Date Night

Hi there! Hope you all are enjoying your Saturday so far… I know I am! :D

My husband and I have started a new Saturday morning tradition where we wake up early to get coffee at a new place we discovered in Silverlake. They make the most authentic cappuccino I have ever tasted! Definitely up there with the cappuccinos I had in Italy! And I love their portions– their cappuccino comes in ONE size, and it’s only 8 oz! It makes me feel like I’m getting something really indulgent, but small enough that it won’t ruin my day.

To recap, last night my husband and I enjoyed a cheap date night. I love staying in and saving money, especially since we live in one of the most expensive cities in the country! We had a simple, satisfying dinner:

Mixed greens topped with goat cheese, red peppers and grated carrots, and a splash of lemon juice.

And our all-time favorite side dish:

Roasted broccoli! This stuff is seriously better than french fries! YUM. ;)

We finished the night catching up on Season 3 of Big Love. Anyone else watch that show? I think it’s surprisingly addictive, considering the subject matter… but we love it! We got the first two discs of Season 3 through Netflix yesterday– hopefully we’ll be able to catch up quickly so we can jump into the new season!

Alright, I’m off to veg-out with these two cuties:

Hope you all have a great weekend! :)
