DATE NIGHT
This past Friday was a long time coming. It was a trying week, and the man knew just what I needed:
a run, followed by playing “Wikipedia” (which he surprised me with, because we both love playing dorky trivia games), followed by making tacos and margaritas at home!
TACOS
We have a running Wunderlist of date night ideas, and “Margaritas and Tacos By the Pool” was the man’s doing. I can’t tell you how much fun it was. Good job, sir!
After our run and playing our game at the pool, we went home and made these delicious tacos, comprised of corn, black beans, white onion, bell peppers, zucchini, chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, avocado, cilantro, and lime. YUM!
MARGARITAS
The man also whipped up some absolutely delicious (and effective) margaritas! The recipe, more or less: 2 ounces of tequila, half an ounce of triple sec, juice of one full lime, a little bit of orange juice, and some agave nectar.
BONUS: BABY SPARROWS!
The sparrow parents who built a nest right outside my apartment door finally have three eager sparrow beaks to feed! The third one is tucked away. They’re so cute!
WHAT’S YOUR IDEAL DATE NIGHT AT HOME?
The Real Life 
Sounds fab, we had margaritas and burgers in the garden (sadly no pool) and played a very competitive game of hoopla.

Aww, baby sparrows!
Your date night sounds like fun.
We don’t really do date nights at home. Since we’re renovating and the house & garden are a bit of a building site, we tend to go out for a bit of quiet, quality time together. It’s more relaxing at the moment!

It sounds like you’re going to have some beautiful spaces for future date nights at home, though! 🙂

I really hope so! Renovating an old house is a little more than I bargained for. Still, it’ll look good when it’s all done!

I think there will be some before/during/after shots at some point. Too much work to not show it off! 😉
