Had a good evening last night
Last night was a good evening. Kim and I met with a bunch of friends at Agnes and Muriel's for dinner. Agnes and Muriel's is a great Southern foods restaurant near the intersection of Monroe and Piedmont downtown. I can highly recommend the Coca-Cola ribs, the BBQ Pork ruben (fried onions instead of saurkraut) and especially the Cajun okra. In the dozen or so times I've been, I don't think I've skipped the okra a single time.
After dinner we wandered down the road a bit and had drinks and dessert at Apres Diem. I rounded out the Southern dining experience with a slice of red velvet cake. Some people don't like Red Velvet cake, but I have no idea why. The cream cheese icing is always good and I honestly don't really think all the red makes the cake taste bitter if it's done right. Kim. I'm talking about you!
I polished that out with a nice Belgian beer - Stella Artios. Great stuff, that Stella. It's got to be one of my favorite beers.
Finally Kim and I went home where we watched some Carlos Mencia on TV
After Kim fell asleep I stayed up till 1:30 am playing Ghost Recon Advanced Warrior on Xbox Live. I generally get my butt kicked online but I have a good time playing. It's always easier to have fun when you find people that are fun to play with and last night was great thanks to four or five other guys online with me, goofing around.
