So, I know that some of you are scratching your heads and thinking...hmm, they've only been married for 1.5 years and you would be right. However, on this day 5 years ago John and I had our first "date" or that might be stretching it....our first time to "hang out" during our get to know you stage. It consisted of eating chips and queso for dinner and then going to this local Dallas neighborhood bar called Cosmo's. It was pretty great...obviously.
So to commemorate this event each year we always go to the same Dallas Dive for burgers and of course the queso (which is more like melted cheese..not much in the way of spices...in a bowl) and then walk to Cosmo's for a few drinks. Of course this year isn't going to be quite the same, but I have lined up a Mexican restaurant where we can at least get queso...albeit it comes in a tiny serving bowl and the basket of chips is maybe 10 chips strong...and there is no such thing as free chips of course, but in Tokyo it was the best I could do. So, I'm hoping that maybe instead you guys in Dallas can go to our dive and get queso and a stiff drink sometime this weekend....to help us celebrate of course.
I've promised John that since we're married, no we don't have to do anything over the top for this day, but I'm a little sad that we aren't carrying on our tradition...se la vie....
Until next time...Jenn

You came to see my babies for the first time that weekend...they are not babies anymore :( Time sure does fly...
OK, I knew the Cosmo's part, but what is the dive queso place? How am I too honor the tradition absent the name?! Madison is all over queso. She also has a favor of dive bars, but I am hoping she grows out of that by her first birthday.
Hope all is well.

It's Lakewood Landing which is right in that same corner as Cosmo's....pretty tasty burgers there too. VERY divy.
