Romantic Thoughts...

The other day I was watching a movie called "The Wedding Date" and the hunky guy that was the main character's date said, "Every woman has exactly the type of relationship she wants."  I was thinking about that today...so many women have bad relationships, but they couldn't possibly want that.  However, the hunk is right.  Our relationships manifest based on what we're focused on.  So let's focus on beauty, laughter, spontaneity, loyalty, uplifting, love, kisses, intimacy, trust, honesty, warmth, comfort, sweetness, thoughtfulness, appreciation, and all of the other things we love about relationships...

Date Night: Dinner & Jazz Concert

Hey everyone! You're in for a special treat.  I rarely double blog in the same day, but since my earlier blog was such a downer, I decided I want to tell everyone about the amazing date my boyfriend took me on today.

I know my day got off to a rough start...but I don't ever kid with people on this -- yelling and shouting don't work with me.  I don't expect everyone in the world to agree with me all of the time (even though I'm always right), and anyone is free to disagree with me...but don't disagree with me 8 octaves above normal speaking voice.  I don't handle or cope with that type of interaction well at all...and I'm sure my face says it all because my face is transparent to emotion.  Sometimes I wish I could hide what I'm really feeling...but I'm beyond that now.

I got my hair done!  Chanel always does a lovely job.  I even got highlights even though you can barely see them in this pic.  I'm also wearing the new maxi dress I bought from Asos.  I'll have to take more pics so you all can see how cute it is!

I've barely seen Malik all week, so I really wanted us to get some quality time in.  I let him pick a new restaurant that we've both never been to, to have dinner at tonight.  He picked Ardeo & Bardeo, which is  rated as one Washington's Top 100 restaurants.

It was very beautiful inside with an art deco modern style, and an intimate environment.

I ordered Lamb Ravioli with split peas, mushrooms, served over fried yogurt.  Sounds a bit 'out there' but it was so deeeelicious!  Every last bite was rich in flavor!

Malik ordered Scottish Salmon with english pea salad, pickled ramps, over a carrot puree.  It's very seldom that I see him completely satisfied with his food, but he couldn't stop talking about how good it was!  I had to steal a bite to see and it was very good!

I thought dinner was a special treat, but the real treat was the Eldar Jazz Concert my cutie pie took me to afterwards!

Eldar performed with his band...they are all unmarried by the way ladies...I checked the ring fingers ;D

They specialized in adapted versions of Jazz music as well as some original American Jazz inspired pieces.

Eldar and his band's talent is amazing!  My baby got us front row tables, so it was truly an excellent musical experience.

Over all this was a great date night with my honey bun :)  I truly do cherish the time we spend together.

Until next time...

Date Night w/ Tyrese Gibson! ♥ ♥ ♥

I was big pimpin' tonight!  I had two sexy brothas as my dates...Malik and Tyrese Gibson!  Tyrese and I of course made plans to meet up a month in advance, so it was long awaited.  I invited my boyfriend so he wouldn't feel left out. ^. ~  Tyrese is a whole big hunk of dark chocolate yumminess, I decided not to be too greedy, so I brought my best friend Arinah along to make this threesome a foursome :D

Tyrese and I had such a lovely conversation about his new book that was released today called "How To Get Out Of Your Own Way".  Of course he sent me my own copy a couple day before the official release. Such a sweetheart!  He discussed his views on relationships and even described his ideal woman...little did he know he didn't have to look any further.  I could sense Tyrese was trying to break me and my man up, but I love dark chocolate and white chocolate...it's so hard to choose!

It felt so good being so close to such an accomplished brotha.  I always did have an eye for greatness!  When I got really close to him my body just froze and I was speechless.  But lucky for me Tyrese is so polite on a first date.  I know Arinah wanted to get close to him too, but I just had to steal him away for myself.  He autographed my book, so I'll make it up to her by letting her read it!

Tyrese invited me to come with him to New York tomorrow for a second date.  That's so funny because when Malik first met me, that's where he invited me for our second date.  There must be something about me that makes the boys wanna just take me traveling! ♥  I declined because I thought me and him were moving too fast.  I'll definitely go out with him again though!

Until next time...

Date Night: Basketball Game - Wizards v. Pistons

I have such a thoughtful man! I swear, he is always taking me out and thinking of me. I am truly blessed ^___^ Tonight he took me to the NBA game of the Wizards v. Pistons at the Verizon Center. I really enjoyed the game and spending time with him ♥

Yay for the home team!  The Wizards won!  The game was neck and neck the whole time, but of course the Wizards pulled through.

I had a great day, but some things were said today that made me kinda sad though...I hate feeling like I'm being judged and my every move is scrutinized.  It's kind of like walking on egg shells all of the time.  Honestly no one really has any right to judge me because I've never met a perfect person yet.  I'm open about who I am and I keep it 100% with everyone.  I wait for everyone else to take off their masks, because I never wore one.  Hmmm...my date tomorrow should lift my spirits!

Until next time...

Date Morning: Breakfast @ Jackie's ♥ ♥ ♥

::yaaaawn:: What a lazy Sunday neh?  I feel like there is something romantic and intimate about have breakfast with your significant other.  Malik took me out for breakfast at this darling little diner called Jackie's.  The interior was a mix of a sweet gal and bohemian with a pinch of attitude.

Malik ordered a platter of eggs benedict with home cooked greens, sausage, and homestyle potatoes.  He's so silly and cute ^__^!

I ordered fluffy buttermilk pancakes with strawberries and organic maple syrup.  So delicious!

After breakfast we went back to his place...but would you believe he sent me home!  ::hands on waist:: I never had a man that got tired of me, but its not my fault he can't get enough of me and keeps inviting me out! ^__~  I got something else for him...I'm going on a date with Tyrese Gibson later on this week since he needs his space  ^.^;;

Until next time...
