So, what do old folks DO on a date night?? Well, first, they stop at a nearby market to buy groceries - BUT - this was actually exciting because Fred Meyer stores are very popular here in Portland and the one near us did a complete reconstruction during the past six months. Yesterday was their grand opening and it was like a giant party ! They had lots of great special prices and, of course, everything was fresh, perfect and beautiful. We actually had fun buying groceries.
Our next stop was a nearby cafe in an area called Multnomah Village. I've not been there before and it's a cozy little street (sort of like those in the S.F. Marina District) with little shops and restaurants. We went to "Down to Earth", a tiny Persian cafe and the food was authentic and cooked by the owner's wife. Roger says the food is as good as he cooks and we know how good that can be.
A lovely evening - a nice way to start a weekend...................
