Dining in style (Day 86)...

Don't you love starting the week with a nice dinner? Make it better by adding in a friend! My great friend, Cathy, invited me to be her guest at Cafeteria in Back Bay to use her Groupon. It was raining, yet again, so my plans to walk around Newbury St. before meeting up with Cathy was a rained out. Get it? Rained out! Ha.

So instead I stopped into the restaurant early to have a little glass of wine and an appetizer. Surprise! They had 50% off appetizers at the bar until 7p. Score 1-Erin.

Once Cathy arrived we got down to business catching up and eating some serious food.

 Cathy just recently got back from a vacation to Japan to visit a friend. In addition to hearing about her awesome trip she also brought me a wonderful souvenir gift. Do you remember the birthday card she brought me from Japan too?!


Everything up close and personal.
