Today was delightfully uneventful as we headed off to the Elks for Girls’ Night Out and met up with the regulars.\u00a0 George, as always, ordered his signature dish: a hockey puck.\u00a0 Honestly, we all need to develop this level of self-control\u2014though I’m not sure the kitchen should be studying him as a role model.\u00a0 We wrapped things up with our usual and, naturally, a glass of wine.<\/p>\n

Girls’ Night Out!<\/p><\/div>\n

After lunch, we stopped by our new tailor to pick up some clothes.\u00a0 He did a magnificent job on taking my size XXXL down to something I could wear (so it would not look like I was smuggling a puptent).<\/p>\n

\"\"

Yes indeed!<\/p><\/div>\n

Around 4:00 pm, we got dolled up for dinner with our workout buddies\u2014because nothing says “athletic” like immediately replacing calories.\u00a0 We headed to Jeff’s in Orange, a glorious little “hole in the wall” with food so good it should be illegal and service so excellent it made us question all our past restaurant choices.<\/p>\n

\"\"

Ready to go.<\/p><\/div>\n

Jeff’s<\/a> is hidden behind what used to be Der Weinerschnitzel on Tuston Blvd.\u00a0 The restaurant is small and slightly noisy but the meal makes up for that.<\/p>\n

Reservations are always needed.<\/p><\/div>\n

After dinner, we went home and crashed.\u00a0 It’s been a slow day,y which tired us out, go figure?<\/p>\n
