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: Blues Concert ♪♩♫

Hey everyone!  I'm just getting back from yet another date with my honeybun.  I swear the honey just keeps getting sweeter!  This even we went to a blues concert at the States Theatre in Falls Church, VA.  Tommy Castro opened up for Tinsley Ellis and the show was amazing!  Who knew blues music was so sexy.  Just something about the music was so primal and sensual!  I loved it and enjoyed spending more time with the sweetie.  We are definitely getting closer and I'm loving it!

This is the dress I wore for my date!  The weather was refreshingly warm and spring-like, so of course I had to show off one of my favorite dresses.  Ladies this is what I would like to call a "get-a-nigga" dress...wearing a dress like this, if you don't already have a man, you will before the night is over! ◕‿-

I trimmed my bangs a little bit so they would stay out of my eyes.  I thought the braid would keep my hair from being to busy so it wouldn't take away from the dress.  Sometime simplicity is the sexiest way to go!  What do you all think?

Until next time...

Date Night: National Symphony Orchestra ♬♪♬♩

Since I enjoyed the last symphony that my honeybun took me out to so much, he invited me to another one at the Kennedy Center.  Tonight we saw the National Symphony Orchestra perform along with sung German poetry.  It was a sad love story that punctuated the symphony's beautiful and dramatic classical music.  Too bad my honeybun wanted to beat his brains out because he hated the German singing LOL! >_< I however completely loved it and followed along in the program with the English translation.

I had to sneak these pictures in at the end because the ushers were kicking people out for unauthorized photography.  I always get my pictures!  These people must not know who I am ◕‿-

Also what do you all think of my hair?  I wanted to see what a lighter color would look like on me without dying my hair, so I bought the London wig by FreeTress.  She's nice and long, and a P4/27 color...so like a medium brown with strawberry blonde highlights.  Just trying out a new look, let me know if its a do or a don't!

Until next time...

Date Night: Lacrosse Tournament & Masonic Classical Symphony

I had such an amazing day today!  I spent the entire day with my sweetie!  (And I intend to spend all night with him too ^. ~)  So this morning I got all bundled up to go to the Konica Minolta Face Off - College Lacrosse Tournament in Baltimore, MD.  It was chilly outside, but good thing I had a hot guy to cuddle up with and keep me warm!  Those sweet kisses made me feel like I was on a tropical beach somewhere »-(¯`v´¯)-» »-(¯`v´¯)-»

After the game, my cutie took me to a Jamaican restaurant for lunch.  I ordered a jerk chicken sandwich and it was definitely yummy!  Then we headed back to his place to get changed into our dress clothes for the Classical Masonic Symphony performing at the Kennedy Center.  He looks so nice in a suit!

I think we look so cute together! ♥ The symphony was pretty good except one really long slow song that nearly put me to sleep LOL! ⎝⏠⏝⏠⎠

Well I'm about to get cuddled up for the night!

Until next time...

Date Night: French Contemporary Pianist Wilhem Latchoumia

Tonight was really special!  I had yet another date with the cutie!  We went to the French Embassy to see Wilhem Latchoumia perform.  He's a famous French contemporary pianist.  Then after the performance I enjoyed free wine that they served in the lobby.  If you've never heard contemporary music before, it will definitely be a different flavor for your ears.  Contemporary music explores an abstract approach to music and uses different media and innovative approaches to playing instruments to create it's unique sound.  I took a few video clips of his performance.  Tell me what you think!

My date is definitely not a push over.  He refused to ask Wilhem to take a picture with me because I was feeling shy.  My pouting didn't persuade him...the meanie!  So I built up the courage to go speak to the famous Wilhem myself and make my request.  Wilhem is such a humble man!  I wish I knew French so I could talk to him more.

Tonight I was wearing a sophisticated lil black dress by Michael Kors.  I love his sleek and sexy fashions!  Me and my honey bun look great together!  I can't wait to see him again!  Every time he gently touched my leg during the concert, I could hear my heart racing with the contemporary music.  Ooooh boy!  :-*

Until next time...
