Car Cravin' and Sushi Maiden

What up peoples. It's that time of the decade, yep, we are looking at a new car. Our car is really fine, it is just feeling too big for us. We don't need the v8, we don't use most of the room, and we would like something a little more fuel efficient. Oh and a smoother ride....so interest rates are low...it's a buyer's market because of the economy.



Seriously again looking at the Prius (we also looked at them last year), but they were too expensive and everyone was all over them because of the super high gas prices. Did I mention we rented the zipcar Prius again on Sunday night? We rode it multiple times at multiple speeds over the train tracks, that nearly throw the Mountaineer on it's side if you aren't going say...5 mph but the Prius handled them GREAT...even at 25 mph.




Sunday night was our valentines night. We went to Ko-fusion and it was marvelous as always and seriously Brent's steak was the best steak I've ever had...everrrrr. I was in luck because they happened to be doing $1 sushi, so I ordered a champagne roll (oh my word, so good, but reeeeeeeeeeeeeeallllly spicy) and I order three pieces of the big roll (my usual). I also ordered the seaweed salad, because I love the taste of it. Oh annnnd two pineapple mojitos (yes, I said two, they are THAT good).


For dessert I ended my meal with the obligatory and oh so yummy green tea ice cream. Brent had the Fillet with roasted potatoes, and baby carrots in a red wine mustard sauce and finished with a chocolate cake. I also let him has some, just some of my mojitos (you see he had to drive, that's what I told him). It was all really good and we didn't have to wait that long for a table, we were seated to the left in a back room (which I didn't know was there) and it had a little fireplace and projection screen with orchids.


After all the culinary madness we decided to hit up someplace new, like the glow in the dark putt putt place. It was pretty cool and Brent won, he always wins. We decided we'd come back and bring Makenna next time, she'd be all about it.


Here are some photos, some from the visit with the Grandparents, Makenna making Valentines cookies with Grandma Vicki and falling in love...I mean renting the Prius.




This last photo is the doo-dad that lets you in the zipcar, you can have your card in your wallet, tap it on the window and it unlocks or locks the car for you...soooo cooool.
