Father daughter date was a success!

Unfortunately the Rays lost but it still was a lot of fun!
We caught a quick bite at a local Thai restaurant down the street pre-game. I had my favorite, Basil Tofu….extra spicy!

I was having a serious Thai craving and this tasted awesome!
We had great seats at the game, courtesy of Ryan’s parents, and it was really neat to sit so close to the field. I tried to catch foul balls on several occasions but with no avail. :(

Around the 4th innning, my dad got a beer and I got DIPPIN DOTS! I always get dippin dots at baseball games—I love ‘em!

Just got home and am about to get in my jammies. I’m exhausted!
My profile was featured tonight on the Murphy-Goode facebook page!! Eeek! Can’t believe that a week from right now I’ll be in Healdsburg!!!!!

Nice seats!! You and your father look so, so similar!! Hope you had a great night!

Stefanie July 11, 2009 at 10:41 pm

Too bad you had to see a losing game! I always hate it when that happens. Did you stay to see Smash Mouth?

Aww what a fun night with Dad! My dad and I spend time together by doing weird, extreme stairclimbing races, like running up to to the top of the Sears Tower and Hancock Center, haha!

What a fun time with your Dad! and LOVE dippin’ dots! YUMM!

So cool about MG!!! I’m beyond excited!!

That’s so exciting you’re on their facebook page!!! I’m so happy for you girly :)

I haven’t been to a rays game in FOREVER. I wonder if they’re gonna end up tearing down the Trop.. I hope they don’t :( They should put that money into revamping The Pier! It used to be one of my favorite places to visit. Have a great day tomorrow! <3

What a great way to spend a father-daughter evening! Glad to hear you had a great time! And I totally agree… dipping dots are the BEST! ;)

Caroline July 12, 2009 at 12:04 am

I am SO jealous that all these restaurants in your town seem to serve tofu–I can’t seem to find a single tofu-serving eatery in all of Alabama!

Shannon (The Daily Balance) July 12, 2009 at 12:10 am

sounds like an awesome date with your dad!

Dippin’ dots totally rock ;)

Michaela July 12, 2009 at 12:43 am

A baseball game is not a baseball game without an ice cold beer! Glad you had fun though.

Hallie (Healthy Twists) July 12, 2009 at 1:13 am

How fun! I had a father-daughter date last week but we saw a play…not that I don’t love the theater…but I would have MUCH rather gone to a baseball game :-D

Tay July 12, 2009 at 2:07 am

Ahhh I LOVE baseball games and LOVE dippin dots!! They totally remind me of amusement parks/Waterworld!!

Jenna (reader) July 12, 2009 at 2:31 am

What a fun date! You are so very lucky to be so close to your dad. My in-laws got rained out while golfing today also! We arrived at their house to see all their golfbags lying in front of fans in their garage.

Laura July 12, 2009 at 2:42 am

What on earth are dipping dots? :)

Amanda (My Summerizations) July 12, 2009 at 2:44 am

i always get dippin dots at baseball games too! the first time i had them was the one and only football game i went to a looonnnngg time ago. and i definitely don’t try to catch foul balls! i stay far away from them if i can–too scary!

Matt July 12, 2009 at 6:27 am

OMG Dippin Dots! Haven’t had those in forever!

Meggilizz July 12, 2009 at 8:56 am

Looks like a really great night!! :) And the thai tofu-basil looks incredible!!!!

Sammie July 12, 2009 at 9:05 am

You and your dad are adorable. Sounds like you two had a nice evening.
I was supposed to go out for a Thai dinner with a friend last night but I had to bail after the adventure we just went through with D – I needed to get to bed early. Can you recommend a healthy soy free dish that I can be on the lookout for? I have never been to a Thai restaurant but my friend is a huge fan. Good luck next week, you will do great. Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

I love a night at the ballpark, and I’m so happy that you can spend quality time with both of your parents. It’s a blessing to live so close. It seems like you have a special bond with them.

Basil tofu sounds awesome. I may have to recreate it for my honey and me.

Enjoy your Sunday!

Stacey July 12, 2009 at 9:43 am

Looks like some father-daughter fun! That Thai food looks awesome, can’t wait to find a place around here that has some great thai food :)

Meg July 12, 2009 at 9:43 am

What fun….a daddy/daughter date! Look at that yummy Thai food!

Island Girl Eats July 12, 2009 at 9:47 am

That’s a shame that the Ray’s lost. We are planning on seeing them this summer when we are up in Tampa on holiday. Hopefully they will win that game!!!

Deva July 12, 2009 at 9:54 am

Ooh, your tofu looks fab and you look like you had a great night! I love dippin’ dots – what flavor did you get? :-)

Kim July 12, 2009 at 10:13 am

Great seats at the game! :) Looks like a good time.

Rebecca July 12, 2009 at 11:26 am

I love going to baseball games!! My boyfriend and his father get season tickets to Yankee games and I go sometimes! It’s so much fun!!
I also love Dippin Dots! I almost got some on the boardwalk last night but decided on grapes instead.
