Last night turned out NOT to be a run night. Oops and dangit. Around midnight, when I realized that I still had all of my Finance homework to do and the coffee wasn’t taking effect, I succumbed to the fact that it would not be a run night. But that’s okay. Because I’m going to do it tonight instead! 
The Caspian Cafe was really good. If you live in Colorado Springs, save up and go there just once. They have a belly dancer Fri and Sat! I didn’t find out until after I got there that I was actually paying for it lol. But the food was great and I got to spend time with my twin, Alicia, so that was fun. We split a mussels appetizer (TO DIE FOR!) and the Chilean Sea Bass “Special”. The sea bass had a lightly flaky crust, and it was topped with 3 shrimp coated in a chili powder that was spicier than actual chili powder, but not too spicy. I liked it. Oh and it was served with a sweet sauce. It was just awesome. I want more! While the entire thing was amazing, we neglected to ask what the PRICE of this marvelous “special” was… $30 btw. And everything else on the menu was like $15-20. Didn’t see that one coming. Oops and dangit once again! Thank goodness we split it because our check with gratuity was $56. Oh, but the bathroom was cute. Well, the doors on the stalls were. I know, I know, I’m strange! Get over it.
So since today is a RUN day…… Today’s run: 1.8 miles
Dinner tonight: Artichoke and Sun-Dried Tomato Stuffed Chicken Breast. It’s okay to be jealous 
Not sure what I want to pair with it. I’m thinking asparagus and a caramelized onion and olive bruschetta.
Oooh. I found the recipe I’m thinking of. I think I’ll serve this alongside our dinner. Mmmm.
