Going into last weekend, I didn’t have any plans, which I was ok with and I knew that I would find something fun to do. And, I did!
Saturday, during the day Steve and I relaxed in preparation of his last semester of school! Then, that evening, Steve had guys night out at our house. So, my friend Meg (at mymonochromaticlife) and I, headed out for girls night out. 🙂
Meg suggested first going to Betty Dangers Country Club for drinks and appetizers and I suggested seeing an act at Acme Comedy Club.
When Meg, suggested Betty Danger Country Club, I was super excited. To be honest, I didn’t know a lot about the resturant, except for, it was the restaurant with a ferris wheel in-front. Yup, you read that right, ferris wheel, which Betty calls The Danger, her vertically revolving patio (or mechanical tree).
I absolutely loved the restaurants quirkiness! The were different rooms within the restaurant, for example, if you are looking to sit down, you can choose the library, if you want a more casual experience you can choose either the bar or what felt like the garden area. The staff was helpful and prompt.
Once we were settled in the bar, our server presented us with three books, which we were slightly confused about but quickly discovered the books had both the food and drink menu tucked inside.
And, the books were actual books, not just props. So, we had fun flipping through them.
Then on our way out, we made a quick stop at the restroom, which I am glad we did because look how cute it was!
Meg and I both agreed hands down we will be back once the weather is nice to enjoy the outdoor activities. Make sure to put Betty Danger’s on your restaurant to try list.
Next, we were off to Acme Comedy Club to see Jackie Kashian. I suggested this because I hadn’t been to Acme for a very long time and I thought it would be something fun and different to do.
The MC started off the night for about 20 minutes, then followed by 2 comedians, one a young gentleman getting ready to embark on his first national tour, and lastly, a magician comedian from LA.
The whole experience at Acme was about 2 hours. And, the tickets were reasonable at $18 a piece.
Since, we were up chatting the night away till about 3 am, Sunday, Steve and I slept in. I literally did not get out of bed till 11:30, which for me is extremely late! Usually, by 8 am on the weekends, I am at least sitting up in bed.
Steve and I took it easy again, made some cookies, played some cards and we were off to Meg and Derek’s for a Superbowl party. I was present for the game, but didn’t intently watch because I was to distracted by Meg’s ADORABLE niece. She was the perfect baby, she didn’t cry or fuss, and she has the most beautiful eyes that are just mesmerizing to look at. I was lucky enough to sit next to Meg’s mom, who is the baby’s grandma and we talked baby and everything in between. The highlight of my night was getting to hold the baby twice!!
I hope everyone had a nice weekend!
