We're back from our V-Day weekend and had a GREAT time. I wish the weekend could have been longer!! I'll try to get caught up with blog reading, etc soon but I'm afraid that won't happen tonight ... I've got too much to do to get ready for another week or work since I played hooky all weekend, haha. Thanks for all the comments, though ... you guys, as always, are the best!! : )
Quick V-Day Recap (well, maybe quick) ...
For dinner on Saturday night, we ate at the Eden Alley Cafe on the Plaza in KC. It's a vegetarian, mostly vegan restaurant that was really neat! On their website they say about themselves that they're "Local. Organic. Traditional. Vegetarian. Vegan. Raw. Gluten+Soy-Free." First, we started off with some bread and agave nectar butter.
I had the spinach and mushroom loaf served with roasted sweet potatoes slices. It was really good! (and I'm having my leftovers for dinner tonight:)
My husband got the sweet potato burrito and it was just as good. 
I had all intentions of taking pictures of our food while we were there, but I just couldn't ... I felt too weird, lol. So I just borrowed the pictures off of their website. (They're better pictures anyways).We stayed in The Q Hotel & Spa, which is pretty much in Westport of KC. It's KC's first "green" hotel, and it was pretty cool. Here's a picture in our room ...
and another one with my husband posing ...
Since this is becoming a long post, I'll end there for now. We did a lot on Sunday, too and I'll do a recap of that later. I've got stuff to get done now, so talk to you later!!!! : ) Hope you have a great Monday!
