Last night Dave made one of my FAVORITE dinners. It is shrimp and pasta with this yummy garlic/olive oil mix with cilantro, cherry tomatoes and a whole bunch of other goodies. So, in our quest to have Lane eat what we eat, I was a bit nervous. First of all, he has never had shrimp so I was nervous over that. Second of all, he has an aversion to anything GREEN that is present in a dish. As dinner was ready, Dave thought that it was a perfect time to have dinner with the table lit with nothing but candles. This wasn't done to set the mood for later, it was simply to disguise the greenness of the dish for Lane! Lane was pumped by the different scenery and dug into his dinner! Bravo, Dave on a fantastic idea!
Lane wasn't a fan of the shrimp. Though, this wasn't really a shocker to me. He liked the flavor but the texture was a bit strange for him. I told him we would try it again sometime soon. He wasn't opposed to it as of yet, so lets keep our fingers crossed that he too will fall in love with shrimp!
Wedding update: We are meeting with a caterer tonight. Keep your fingers crossed!
