A good meal

This evening Ken and I took bethie-noodle out to dinner.  She's in town on business and we thought it would be fun to meet.  She wanted something she could only get in Oklahoma, but the best we could come up with was chicken fried steak.  Sure you can get it pretty much anywhere in the south, but it's part of the official Oklahoma State Meal (yes, we have one).  In order to do it up right we took her to Cattlemen's Steakhouse.  Yes.  We got the lamb fries.  Yes.  Beth ate some.  Yes.  She liked them.  Turns out she's an adventurous eater just like we are.  In the future she'd like to go try out the Ethiopian restaurant.

After we came back to the house I gave Beth a tour of my studio.  Then we sat in the living room to visit for a while.  After only about 5 minutes Kitty came down the stairs and went right up to Beth and asked to be petted.  Kitty doesn't even do this for family!  I've never seen her go into the same room with a stranger that quickly let alone allow one to touch her.  I guess Beth is good people!
