Girls Night Out

It is not often I go out without my husband, but sometimes to kibbitz with the girls can be fun.
It was a friends birthday and we met at the beautiful home of one of the honorees friends and supped on selections from Whole Foods. Being a cook myself, I have never really been that interested in store bought prepared foods; but I must admit the selection was quite tasty. The ravioli was stuffed with artichokes and a sandwich of fontina cheese and potobella mushrooms on forccacia bread was delish. The buffet also included a chicken kabob and three kinds of sushi. Our host has an extensive wine collection and the red I drank was wonderful. Dessert was a real treat. It was a chocolate ice from a new outlet of Rita's Ices. It tasted just like a chocolate snowball from New Orleans and I was in heaven.
I was invited to join the girls to go out dancing and I was game. It was a place that people over forty congregate, mostly singles; but I didn't care if I danced with the girls, as long as I danced. Dancing is a passion of mine. It allows me to feel good, it releases any stress I may be having and it is just plain fun. I ordered a drink and got on the dance floor with my girlfriends. I had a ball. I drove home with the top down and thought, I need to do that more often.
