Day Three-Hundred and Twenty-Five

I have this memory of one time when a friend and I were fighting over who was going to pay for our meal. They tricked me and the waiter took the receipt back from me and handed it to her. I am not sure who it was, but I wasn't going to let that happen today.

In Argyle, there is this cute little bistro, Cachette. That is where Elise wanted to have lunch today. So naturally, I went online and found their menu. I wanted to know what to order so I wouldn't take 20 minutes just looking at the menu. Not wanting to look like an idiot trying to drive there, I left my house early and drove there. After navigating through the complex town of Argyle, I went to pick up Elise. She was definitely surprised when I walked into the office. Phase one complete.

Once she was able to leave, we got in my truck and I drove confidently the one mile to our destination. She was confused by how I knew where I was going. I confessed to her that I had driven there before picking her up so I wouldn't look dumb. Somehow I feel like that defeated the purpose, but if you know me, I end up telling people my tricks. We went inside and had a seat. Without opening a menu, I order the Cali Chicken Sandwich. Confused again, "You went online and found their menu didn't you?! You are ridiculous!" Phase two complete.

We ate our lunch, which was delicious! Afterwards, the waitress brought me my receipt to be signed. Elise asked, "HoW dId YoU dO tHaT?!"


Remember when I drove over to find the place? I went inside and told them that I wanted to pay for my friend's meal when we came in for lunch. The owner took my debit card, locked it in the cash register, and assured me she would take care of it. 
I just took this game to a whole new level!
