Thomas and I were feeling pretty stressed last week – nothing in particular, just the crazy things going on in our lives. So to relax and reconnect, we went on a date Friday night. We started out at a new coffee house – Land of a Thousand Hills. I’ve always complained that there are no decent coffee houses in this town, but this one is awesome.
It’s a cozy converted house with a patio outdoors where they have live music on Friday and Saturday nights. They have a bookcase with boardgames and books, and display (and sell) handmade Rwandan baskets. They even stay open until midnight.
This is exactly what I was looking for in a coffee house – it’s almost even better than Third Place in Raleigh. (Third place wins because I used always run into friends there.) We played a game of Scrabble – I won…barely – and then headed to Chaplins for dinner where we sat on the patio and ate and chatted in the cool Fall air. It was a great, relaxing night, and hopefully we can do it again soon.
