Post 2nd Date with Darrin (Valentine's Weekend) Feb 11-13,2011

Wow.. what a wonderful time we had on our second date.
We spent the 3 days getting to know each other better and stayed on the northshore,not traveling more than 3 miles from home.
On the way home from the airport Darrin wanted to eat something with rice,so we stopped at Big City Diner . Darrin ordered the fresh Ahi steak and I had steak. It was raining so we decided to stop at Safeway and load up the cooler so we didn't have to go out. The cooler was stocked with a variety pack of Kona Brewing Company Beer some Guiness, strawberries, Island 808 Vodka and 2 bags of ice. We were bunkered in for a night to get to know each other better.
The next day we  had breakfast from  Ted's Bakery at Sunset beach. Darrin ordered the Denver omelet and I stuck with the traditional eggs,rice and Portuguese sausage. Saturday afternoon we hit the shrimp trucks. We decided to stop at 2 shrimp trucks so Darrin can sample food from each one. First stop was Fumi's Kahuku shrimp shack where we had a #4 Hot and Spicy and a #10 Salt and Pepper shrimp both were very good. Next stop was Romy's shrimp/prawn shack where we ordered a plate of Garlic and butter shrimp and one plate of the fried shrimp that's wrapped in a egg roll wrapper then fried. We brought beer to each place since it's a BYOB kind of place. Then back home we went,still raining.
Sunday we went to Ted's Bakery again where Darrin ordered the Ted's special omelet (ham,bacon,potato,onion,and cheese) with a side of spam. I ordered the loco moco. We cruised to Kane`ohe and on the way back stopped at The Crouching Lion Inn for Lunch. We split a crab cake sandwich and a pot of steamed clams. Oh we were sure stuffed.. lol... we went back home where we stayed until it was time to take Darrin to the airport.
I had the most relaxing weekend I have EVER had in my life,staying home and just enjoying the company of Darrin and only having to travel 5 miles max was awesome.Mahalo to Darrin for helping to make Hawai`i truely paradise
