Dressed up and went out to dinner, in the blue dress my grandmother bought for me last time she visited. Gene graciously humored me, and even wore his new shoes. We went to this little Persian place, Alborz and feasted on wonderful food. The combination of pomegranates and walnuts in the sauce I ate was fantastic. I haven't had such a good meal in ages. We had hummus and this seasame seed covered flatbread, and it was happy meal.
