Prix fixe for me update: I’m in such a food coma that I can barely type. We just got back from our date night dinner at 801 Chophouse and man, was it ever good! We both decided to take them up on the Restaurant Week offerings. I went with the iceberg wedge salad-filet mignon-creme brulee combo, and Marcus chose the Caesar salad-prime rib-creme brulee trio. Don’t worry, I savored every last bite! We also decided to bring our own bottle of wine that we had been saving for quite some time, and that, too, did not disappoint!

DSM Restaurant Week 2011 - 801 Chophouse

Oh, how sweet.

Marcus is in a golf tourney all day tomorrow and my mom and sisters are spending the weekend in Chicago, so my plan is to get in a little ME time. Well, that and spending time with the Bean of course. Nothing new there.

Included in that “me” time is also, hopefully, a little go at a self-manicure. I recently came across the blog Cupcakes and Cashmere via my little sister Morgan. The author is so stylish and I love her look.

While reading through some old posts, I came across these two super cute mani designs that I’d like to try out. If I get around to it, I’ll show you the outcome in Sunday night’s post. Hopefully I acquire a steady hand by then, or else things could get a bit sloppy.

Just a touch of shimmery sparkle on the ring finger nail.

The perfect amount of sparkle.
