The good, the bad, and the carpet

The Good...

Wilmington, is a Restaurant intensive town. There are more restaurants, diners, and fast food joints per capita in the Wilmington area than any comparable city in the southeast. With this weekend being the beginning of the tourist season, spring break and Easter, finding a place to dine without the long wait is difficult even in a food centric town such as this. Dani and I had received a buy 1 get 1 free coupon in the mail from one of our favorite Italian restaurants (Giorgio's) and It being Thursday, this was the most logical day to really enjoy it. We had a pleasant meal with enough leftover to fill 2 large styrene containers. I don't know if you can scale it from the photo but the restaurant uses dinner plates that are a more than generous, 14" across. The food was delicious, and with the coupon, shockingly inexpensive.

The Bad...

We forgot to feed the dogs.

The Carpet...

I can imagine the two of them, like children, having the following conversation:
Sydney: So what do you want for dinner?
LB: Hmm, something smells really good in the green box under the sink.
Sydney: Yea, I guess they won't mind, I mean we're doing them a favor.
LB: Dibs on the tin foil!
...Nuff said.

I'm glad to see the dogs enjoyed a good stout with their dinner.

Next time we're in Wilmington visiting our son, we will have to try Giorgio's.

I also noticed they dropped one of the cat's catnip mice into the mix, presumably to shift the guilt her way. Very smart girls they are.

It's hard to tell, as they rarely move much early in the day. They have certainly forgotten much of their rough existence at the animal shelter prior to their adoption. Very spoiled girls indeed.
