be happy for this moment.

Education's purpose is to replace an empty mind with an open one.

On Friday night Nick and I headed out to meet one of his college friends who was in town for a wedding. Ryan was one of the people we visited on our first trip to St. Louis in 2006 while he was getting his doctorate at Washington University.

We met a Ryan and two other couples for dinner but since a bunch of guys organized it, no one made reservations. So we ended up at Kilkenny's Pub. We were all starving but I wasn't keeping my expectations too high. Honestly, though, it was the best patty melt I'd ever had. Yum!

It was nice to be with some different people and at a different place for dinner. Talking about what we all did for work at the table, poor Nick was the least educated of us all. Three doctors, three masters degrees... and Nick with his undergrad business degree. The shame, right? Just kidding. He's a smarty pants.

We broadened our horizons, even if just a little bit, on Friday night!
