It was Friday night and Ms. Fabulous' spirits were low so we had to go out. The plan: dinner at Cafe San Miguel where a few Pomeritas would cure our troubles followed by maybe going to a nearby bar. I had been mentioning Cafe San Miguel to Ms. Fabulous for months, telling her that it was a rare neighborhood find. The food is exceptional, the atmosphere funky, and their signature drink the Frozen Pomerita (aka a frozen pretty pink cocktail) is worth the trip. And to top it off, the women's bathroom has a replica of St. Anthony standing on his head, ready to hear about bad dates, significant other woes, and other romantic complaints. This is all part of Mexican folklore, but would could be more apropos for Ms. Fabulous than this tonight???
The evening started out at the bar, where clearly the Pomeritas affected our ability to take photographs. Or, maybe it was the lights. Nevertheless, here are some psychedelic shots of us from the bar:

We ate Queso Fundido and snacked on guacamole all the while awaiting the perfect round corner table in the restaurant. Our group like the "perfect table" and will wait for it because that's just the way we roll! We chatted the evening away about work, unusual past relationships and our upcoming Halloween costumes. It was a good change of pace for us tonight, having a long relaxing dinner with friends. When the check came, I was finding it hard to count the money and thus I knew then that the night was done for me. I think the rest of the gang decided to call it a night as well.


As for Ms. Fabulous, well she didn't go profess her relationship woes to St. Anthony as was recommended so who knows what will happen. Only time will tell.
