A night out with Daddy normally means a night out for dinner.  Darryl's schedule doesn't allow for much fun time so we take what we can get when we can get it.  Last week we went to our favourite sushi place for dinner and had a great meal. 

Our goal for the evening is to act appropriately in the restaurant, have a good conversation about life and to try at least one new thing on the menu.  This is a little more difficult for me as I have nasty reactions to fish and seafood in general; however, I do try as much as I can.  I am always amazed at the girls and their willingness to at least attempt to taste something new.  Kiya's favourite thing to eat is beef tataki, for those who don't know this is a piece of steak that is seared on the outside and raw in the middle, yes sounds icky, but she loves it.  Mylee's favourite thing is shrimp tempura, and boy is it ever fun to watch her eat it.

Both girls try hard to use the chopsticks and are getting better every time we go. It is nice when you try to incorporate everything into a meal. 

On this occasion it was an interesting adventure because Mylee ate like a horse.  After her tempura, she ate chicken, after chicken, she ate beef, after beef she had 8 pieces of salmon maki and then on top of it all, she ordered 5 chocolate mousse cups.  And she ate every little drop out of them. 

Dinner is always an adventure!!
