Riley's Birthday Weekend
Last weekend for Riley's birthday we went to Birmingham for the night. We stayed at the Highland Hotel in Downtown Birmingham. The hotel was so nice and everyone that worked there seemed to be too! We walked to the restaurant and had what Riley says was the "best meal he has ever had," but he says that a lot. It was very good! It is a place called 26 and it has a sister restaurant called Oceans that we have eaten at several times before and liked it as well. The atmosphere was so much fun...I wished Tuscaloosa would get a few of those restaurants!! The next morning we had made plans to walk to the Original Pancake House to eat breakfast. Oh wow!!! If I wasn't full the night before, I was definitely full then!! Riley had the bright idea that because it was his birthday and it didn't know when we could get back to Birmingham for breakfast that he wanted pancakes and us to split an omelet. I know, I know we shouldn't be so wasteful and this time of year...I felt so bad about it. But we usually don't do that and it WAS his birthday so we did. He ordered pancakes and I ordered hawaiian pancakes and we split the omelet that we didn't know ALSO came with pancakes!!! SO let me tell you people were definitely looking at us and our table full of food! A lady walking by looked down at our table and started whispering to her husband who then also looked down at our table! I was quite embarrassed but it didn't seem to bother Riley he just kept eating. He ate a good portion but I couldn't get much of mine down and because it had pineapple and powdered sugar, it was sweet so I felt like I was eating a big cake. I know how to please my husband....lots of good FOOD! :)
