sam_gamgeeMy grammy and I went to see Ina Garten, the Barefoot Contessa, speak tonight. The tickets were my Christmas present to her.
She was surprised and pleased when I gave her the tickets. Then she called me the next day, worried, because the seats were odd numbers and she didn't realize they were next to each other. After that, she told me I shouldn't have spent so much on the tickets. (They were $48 a piece.)
I picked her up and took her out to dinner first, which included sitting in the driveway for about 15 minutes figuring out where we wanted to go. Then there was a bit of haggling over who would pay. I had originally told her I'd take her out to dinner, but she didn't want me to spend even more money on her. But I was victorious. :-)
We had a great time listening to Ina Garten talk about her experiences with her cookbooks and cooking show and such and I'm glad I got to give my grammy a great night out.
