Since my beautiful wife is going to be out of town for the next few days. And because it is forecast to snow and have an ice storm, which could cause traveling problems, and since we just enjoy ourselves better on the 'off lower crowd nights', we went to dinner at Texas Roadhouse. The food was good and my babe was more beautiful than ever. She had the chicken, mashed potatoes ( taters y'all ) and gravy and mixed veggies. Why she always orders chicken at a steak house I'll never understand. I had ribs and steak fries. Actually I just ordered the appetizer basket. Which turned out to be plenty thanks.
