A friend and I have been meaning to get together for some time. We were colleagues at my former workplace and as fate would have it, have discovered post-work-relationship that we have a lot more in common than we had originally imagined. Turns out we have similar styles in parenting (food choices, activities) and even our own personal interests are more aligned than we had realized.
We did a late evening coffee meet at Starbucks a few months back and had such a good time and intended to have more get togethers but you know how the story goes...life gets busy and get togethers get put on hold.
A few days ago, as we were messaging each other over Facebook to make plans for a Sunday night coffee, a thought suddenly occured to me. Why not have coffee at my place? And if she was a Desperate Housewives watcher, then we could watch it at my place. But if not, no worries, I could PVR the episode. Comedically enough, she responded back with yes, she was a Desperate Housewives fan and had thought the same thing...she would be missing Desperate Housewives to meet up with me but was willing to PVR it. I got inspired...a Desperate Housewives meet called for decadence. I suggested chocolate truffle cake and martinis. My friend responded with glee. It was a date.
This morning, I ended up buying a chocolate mousse cake (was at Costco and couldn't resist the good price on it). So here I am waiting for her to arrive within the hour. Should be a good time. I mean, how can you go wrong with trash TV, martinis and chocolate? It's a good time waiting to happen.
ETA: Just found out DHW is not on tonight. But I'll still have my cake and my martinis too!
