Hands down, heaven was always Doing well what I enjoy, Being around the people I love, Talking and Eating. All at the same time, if possible!
So it occurred to me that I've been Doing Heaven a lot lately:
- Enjoying a double-header movie date with Donica while eating parmesan cheese-flavored popcorn.
- Spending a 3-hour lunch catching up with a friend at Smokey Bones.
- Rendezvousing with Donica's mom and Lee at the Spaghetti Factory for a quiet evening during Donica's too-crazy schedule.
- Celebrating Amy's and Mark's birthdays at the Atlanta Fish Market, with special emphasis on drooling over Mark's king crab legs. The stuffed flounder, blackened grouper and "Hong Kong"-style sea bass were great droolers as well. We all love Atlanta's fresh seafood.
- Smiling widely while Donica and Nicholas pick out the jukebox songs and pay the Waffle House bill.
- Watching good football with Amy and Mark (yay GA!) and then Braves baseball (boo-hoo) with Mark while eating Mardi Gras wings and veggie/fruit munchies.
It doesn't get much better than this, which is why we call it "just like heaven." We oughta do it more often!
