So how did the Duke and Duchess spend their Friday evening? At Trivia Night, of course!

There is a restaurant along 30A (a beautiful scenic highway that runs right along the Gulf) that hosts trivia every Friday night. Tables compete against each other, so it gets really crazy. Each person at the winning table is entered to win a trip to Vegas to be given away at the end of the summer. I’ll let you know if I win.
Jessica, Laura and Damon were on our team.

Jessica is one of my best friends…she was in our wedding. Isn’t she gorgeous??

Before the competition really heated up, Jessica, the Duke and I split some fried pickles.

These bad boys were perfectly seasoned, but pretty greasy. I could only handle a few, since they main course was a good ‘n healthy PIZZA!

The Duke got pepperoni on his half, while Jess and I split the veggie side (which only consisted of green peppers, olives and mushrooms).
After three rounds of trivia, we were the top team. We sent Jess and the Duke up to go head-to-head with another team. There were a few tense moments with some serious questions (i.e. Who wrote To Kill a Mockingbird?)

We won!! Way to go, Jess and Duke!
After the competition, we headed back to Laura and Damon’s for games. We played a few rounds of Scattergories before breaking to make S’mores. Laura has a nice gas range, so we roasted marshmallows right there on the cook top. Genius!


It was such a fun night! It’s time to hit the books hard today. Only three more weeks of my LAST classes for teacher certification. Woohoo! Lots to do between now and then, though. Have a great weekend.

Yes ma’am it is! I thought it was a good idea, also. Gotta love the sweet and salty combo.
