Flashback: In the Mood

I was in charge of planning our Valentine's date this year. We chose to celebrate on February 8 (which just so happens to be our BFF's anniversary!), mainly because Chip would be out of town on V-day.

 

To backtrack a little, for weeks I had seen advertised that the Glenn Miller orchestra was coming to town. Chip had no idea who they were, so anytime I mentioned the possibility of going to see them, my eager request fell on unappreciative ears.

 

Left to my own devices, I decided to purchase a couple of tickets to the orchestra, and I made dinner reservations at a nearby restaurant, Stella's Southern Bistro.

 

Chip loved the dinner. I loved the music.

 

Here's my all-time favorite Glenn Miller song, Moonlight Serenade:

 

 

I 'bout near cried when they played it that night.

 

Thanks for "suffering" through the evening for my sake, honey. I love you.
