Last week's Smell the Roses task was to catch up with someone over dinner.
One of my best friends, Brittany, and I grabbed dinner Thursday night at one of my favorite places - a Greek restaurant called Acropolis. Since we had a late dinner, we were able to sit outside and not die from a heat stroke...so that was nice!
Britt & my schedules kinda clash so we haven't had much time to catch up these last few weeks. We had fun getting dinner and walking around the cute plaza. It's one of my favorite plazas, because it has such a small community feel to it. Brick walls, stone walkways, high hanging zig-zagged white lights, benches scattered about...I'm actually looking to rent an apartment in there when my lease is up in October!
I got a Greek salad with grilled chicken (no tomatoes or potato salad) and some sangria :) Oh and we shared some tzatziki dip with pita as an appetizer. SO DELICIOUS. I love me some Greek food! Acropolis is definitely one of my favorite places to eat...delicious & affordable? YES PLEASE.
By the time we finished talking and remembered that we needed to take pictures, everyone around us had left! SO we did a little improv and took pictures of each other and used the Pic Frame app to put them together. Clever, I know ;)
Did you catch up with someone over dinner last week? Link up!
Your food looks delicious! And it looks like you had fun! I too forgot to take pictures .... but at least you got some! I completely forgot! Not even a food pic! Oops!

This reminds me that I have not had any sangria yet this summer--this must change soon!
ReplyDeleteYou are definitely rocking your new necklace. Love how you are wearing it. Glad you had fun catching up with your friend!
ReplyDeleteGreek food is a total favorite of mine. The last two times I've gone home, my family has gotten Greek food together. LOVE. And I love that Greek food is veg-friendly!
ReplyDeleteHappy Monday, gorgeous. As always, you look beautiful in that photo!
YUM! That food looks fantastic. Man, Greeks know their food. I always love the recipes that are greek-inspired. So much olive oil, vinegar-y, feta cheese goodness :)
