Steak & Frites

Geoff and I had a child free 24 hours on the weekend. My parents are so supportive of our little family, helping with the children and being so involved in their lives, but also giving Geoff and I some space to stay a couple. Every time we have time without the girls, the hours seem to pass even faster. I can no longer imagine being childless, the freedom to just do as you please each and every day - read a book for hours - sure; go to the movies on a whim - why not.

These days I'm more a casual dining girl, loud Italian or Asian more often than not, but there was something I fancied about Bistro Guillaume probably the gorgeous look of the place. Not sure on my feelings about Crown - can't really say I see the appeal of it, although plenty seem to. Really nice bistro in a gorgeous looking restaurant setting - oysters and duck confit for him, salad and steak and frites for me. Chocolate dessert and coffee for him, petit fours and tea for me.

So nice going out, had time to get ready for a change, put on a fancy dress, but that didn't translate to Geoff getting a good photo of me. I even tried the self portrait but honestly, this shot of a brooch I wore was the best of the bunch! One more thing on my list to practice - learn to be a better photographic subject.
