Date Night!

Okay, for we seniors this has a whole new meaning from our college days. Or does it? Friday night out meant a date with someone different every week. But after meeting my husband it meant going out for Mexican food (chicken enchiladas in particular). Nowadays, Friday night out means our time together, yes, but on a different note. First we go grocery shopping (Walmart and HEB) and then we go out for dinner. It's kind of nice because we get an errand done and then get a reward - dinner out! 

My protagonist, Jillian Bradley, isn't married so she goes out for dinner occasionally with whomever she's in contact with - either at home (Prentice Duvall, the art dealer) or a friend/colleague she's associating with on a trip (Vincent Fontaine or Ira Sinclair). In book 7 "The Ruby of Siam" (due out at the end of June) she actually marries one of them. (You'll have to get the book to find out who.)

In book 4 "The Mark of Eden" Jillian and Teddy actually go on a cruise to Catalina Island with a gentleman. But was that a good date? Read the book to find out. 

Whatever your plans are for tonight and this weekend, I hope you'll have a good time!

See you in my books!
