High Five for Friday

1. Dinner at Hayes Barton Cafe and Dessertery.  I don't think there's a better place to eat with your Valentine.  Or your best friend.  Or perhaps that's one and the same. Do heed this essential advice: Save room for dessert (Our State magazine just did an article on HB's desserts). Eclectic, cozy, and just plain delicious, this restaurant is without question my favorite place to eat in Raleigh (a pretty big statement for a foodie like me).  Needless to say, someone made me a very happy Valentine @ HB.

 

2. Celebrating 10 years of The Summit.  I am humbled and blessed to have been a part of the last four; what challenging teaching, encouraging fellowship, and transforming community God has provided for me and so many others through this church. I can't wait to see what else the Lord has in store for Raleigh/Durham through the hands and feet of Summit.

3. Upcoming weekend @ my dad's in the mountains of North Carolina. Amazing view.

4. Wednesday night dinner @ Chipotle with Amber and Kelly.  Great conversation and delicious guacamole made for a fantastic evening.  And, um, I have a confession.  I ate my own side of guacamole.  It's that good so I'm not ashamed.

5. A sophomore boy's take on whether Valentine's Day is a legitimate holiday: "It's kind of false."  The class just laughed and laughed.  I even wrote my Q & his A on the board so I could look at it the rest of the day.  I don't think he knew it was funny... which makes it even funnier.
