Today started crappy, with the news that my daughter's husband couldn't babysit this afternoon/evening after all. I haven't been able to go anywhere with JUST my daughter in almost 3 years, so for Mother's Day this year we asked for the opportunity to have this outing.
So, leaving out all the stupid details, my daughter found a sitter and we had our afternoon after all. We met near my work at 1:45 and I drove us to a local high-end outdoor mall we like, mainly because it has like 6 different yummy restaurants all in walking distance. I bought a blouse at J.Jill, she bought some MAC cosmetics, and then we went to P.F. Changs.
We shared chicken lettuce wraps, Waldorf salad, and Mongolian Beef. We skipped dessert, but stopped at Yogurtland for frozen yogurt. For the first time EVER I only had fruit on my frozen yogurt and had a small serving. It was very refreshing.
We then headed to our local Outlet Mall to shop at The Loft. I got a skirt and top and she got some capris and a top. We talked, laughed, walked, and just enjoyed each other's company.
It was a successful outing with food not being the enemy. I consider that a win.

Thanks, everyone. You are SO right! I knew I was fortunate to spend as much one-on-one time with my daughter before and after she got married, but it's been hard not having that special time since her boys were born. She is moving with her family so her husband can finish college in four short months. I am trying to console myself with the idea that when she does visit, her boys will be old enough to be left with grandpa so my daughter and I can have the occasional day like yesterday :-)

Hollywoodoregon, I just KNEW you'd guess where we went! With the balmy weather yesterday, I seriously felt like I was at an outdoor mall in CA! I would have dies of the heat if it weren't for all the in and out of air conditioned stores! Plus, the buildings send nice long shadows, so we weren't in the sun all the time. I like frozen yogurt, but I confess that it doesn't quite satisfy my sweet tooth enough. Today I'm struggling with the desire to eat something decadent. I consider it a win that I didn't stop at the store for a scone after work. Instead, I'm going to have breakfast for dinner :-)
