Tonight was our belated Valentine's Day. Dan surprised me on Tuesday by arranging for his cousin Meredith to come babysit for us tonight so we could go out - something we haven't done alone for a long time!
We went to a French place in Oak Park called Cafe Le Coq (http://metromix.chicagotribune.com/barsandclubs/43913,0,2008091.venue). It's a place I've been wanting to go to ever since I saw it on "Check Please" (a show on PBS about Chicago restaurants). It was delicious! Even Dan liked it, which is unusual when we go to more "quaint" type places. I had gnocchi filled with a pumpkin filling with a sage cream sauce, and Dan had steak with blue cheese crumbles and a blue cheese sauce. And before dinner they brought us pumpkin and brie soup, which was also delicious!
It was nice to spend an evening together. I think Gabe had fun with Meredith, too. So much fun that he didn't want to go to bed! He went right to sleep when we got home, though.
