I never know what to expect when I am out with Rick...he always seems to be up to something sneaky. We always have fun though! This morning we had to run out of the house and we didn't have time to make our normal BIG breakfast for everyone. I suggested we just stop at Dunkin Donuts so the kids at least had a little something to eat and then we could do a nice lunch once we got home.
Well things took a lot longer then we planned and before we knew it was just about 3:30! Way past breakfast and lunch and we were starting to move on to dinner. Everyone was starving!
Rick just starts driving and not towards home. I asked where we were headed and all I got was that sneaky smile! I knew better then to ask again. :)
We ended up at Don Ramon. I had heard several people at work talk abut this restaurant but I had never been there. I was a little nervous about trying something new especially after my recent ER visit. And I thought for sure Jessica wouldn't eat a thing...she doesn't do new at all and here we are at a Cuban restaurant! But everything was amazing! Rick ordered everything (In Spanish...I love listening to him speak Spanish, something very sexy about it!) and it was actually something he had made for us at home before so everyone was very happy...even Jess! And we did try a few new things. I was very proud of Jess for giving some new foods a try and I think she may have even liked a few of them, I know I did! :)
