Good morning! How was your weekend? Mine, per usual, went way too quickly. I still have San Francisco to recap for you, but for now, let’s do a little weekend recap!
Friday night, RM and I headed into the city to have a sushi dinner at Douzo. It feels like it’s been ages since we had a Friday night date night, and since we aren’t eating meat on Fridays (Lent), it was a great excuse to get out and do a sushi date night. Per usual, the food was fantastic. We shared a few rolls and sashimi pieces and had their spicy garlic coated edamame which is absolutely delicious! Paired with a few glasses of rose and good conversation, it made for a great night!
Oh, and tempura bananas and ice cream to finish the night? Perfection.
Saturday morning started with my cardio kickboxing class which is always my favorite way to start the day! But what I was really excited about on Saturday was the fact that my parents were coming down for the night. My sister used her points and got them a night at the Renaissance, so she, her boyfriend, RM and I headed in around 6 to meet for a pre-dinner drink and then dinner at 75 on Liberty Wharf. Have you ever been there? It’s right on the water next to Jerry Remy’s and it’s a cute, tiny little restaurant with delicious food! We all loved our meals- everything from the steak tip salad to salmon to seafood stew to a burger and my Jambalaya, was just awesome.
Post dinner, we headed over to Whiskey Priest because mom wanted to go dancing. I hadn’t been there in years, and it didn’t take long for me to realize why: it’s such a young crowd!! But, they had a great live band and we had so much fun dancing and meeting people. Guess that’s what happens when you bring your cute little mom to the bar 😉
“I’m a guy magnet!”- Sue Gags herself. We did not know these guys, but she had guys and girls dancing with her all night!
Even though I stayed out way later than I anticipated and drank more than I would’ve liked, it was seriously such a fun night. I’m so lucky to have parents who love coming to the city and going out and having fun.
Sunday morning had a very lazy start, which was perfect. And these healthy pancakes? The best RM has ever made!
All in all, such a fun weekend! I was so sad last night when I knew it was coming to an end.
Questions for you: How was your weekend? Did you do anything fun? Where do you go dancing? Have you ever been to 75 on Liberty Wharf?

I love your mom! She is too cute!
I know it, right?! love her!
Love love love that your mom wanted to go dancing, so fun!! sounds like a great family night. I’ve eaten at 75 liberty wharf and loved it too 🙂
It was such a fun night! I hope I’m like her when I grow up 🙂
So awesome that your parents are so much fun!! I can’t even imagine going out like that with my mom. I hope that one day my boys will want to do stuff like that with their girlfriends/wives…and us!!!
I love that they are like that, too- it is so fun! It seems like you’re a fun mom so I’m sure they’ll want you around 🙂
Hi Nick, I loved all of the pics of the weekend–it was the best time!! Thanks so much to both of you for giving me such a memorable weekend.(of course, I couldn’t walk for 2 days–so worth it!!) My happiest times are being with both of my girls, dancing up a storm–it brings back such wonderful memories of my “20-something” dancing days. (I was a “Disco Queen”, as I’ve mentioned a million times!!) Love You, Mom
It was such a fun night! So happy we were able to do it! xoxo
