Communal review.

Oh my goodness. Today was actually okay, albeit some of the usual craziness! I had class, and then studied in the JSB for my Book of Mormon test, which I got a 97 on! Woohoo yay, as A. used to say :) Then it was time to rush home to get ready for our cleaning check, which we passed "with flying colors". Bam! And then...it was time for dinner with Pa! He humored me and let me choose where to go. I decided to check out a restaurant that some of my friends from back home had talked about, Communal. on University Ave. We went and OH MAN. It was deeeeelicious. Sooooo yummy! It was a little pricy, which I apologized to Pa about...I should have realized/done some research! 

ordering. all fancy.
Just chatting with our waiter about what they had to offer. You know. Because I'm such a food connoisseur....

On to the food. THE FOOD. We ordered half of the Gala Apple Salad, with goat cheese and pistachios, and the Fall Mushroom Toast, with herb grilled bread, tomato jam, and manchego, half of the trout and chicken, and twice baked sweet potatoes with bacon brittle, and then cheddar hush puppies with lime and smoked pepper jelly. MY WORD. So delicious! I felt like I was at Marché (this restaurant that my parents and I visited) again! Yum yum yum.

Salad and bread

What's left of dinner.. (chicken, trout, sweet potatoes)

And they also had basil limeade! A nice refreshing way to wash everything down. Tart and perfect. Thought of you, Dad!

And as if the start to the weekend hasn't been fabulous enough...tomorrow is Ugly Sweater Day at BYU! Which means I'm breaking this bad boy out...
Look for pictures tomorrow! Haha. I'm sure they'll be great. And thanks again Pa for the delicious dinner! Fun to talk to you and have a good time. Ok... and Mom/Dad + the siblings, can you believe it's two weeks TO THE DAY until Thanksgiving?!! We'll get to reunite, along with Amma and Grandpa Ned! For the win :)
