Date Night at Contigo

Kyle and I have been so busy lately, it's been tough to squeeze in an evening that's not filled with work, writing or band practice. Last week was special, though. We had our first date night at a spot in our new neighborhood: Contigo. We've both only ever been there for drinks -- the El Pepino (tequila, cucumber, mint, and lime) is something else -- but we've been meaning to have dinner.

Contigo gets really dreamy at night. It's all outdoor seating, and seating is limited, which makes the experience intimate and more relaxing. Great vibes and lighting all around ...

These guys have a way with cucumber. Very artsy ...

And this was my dessert -- a toasted marshmallow between two chocolate fudge cookies and raspberry sauce on the side ...

I left a very happy lady. Thank for the date night, my man!
