$25 Visa Gift Card & Date Night Dinners {Giveaway} CLOSED

Do you remember your first date with your spouse, significant other or boyfriend/girlfriend? While my husband and I disagree on what was actually our first date we can both recall pretty easily what we think they are :). I wasn’t able to find a picture of us on a date because we didn’t have a digital camera but I did find one us that was taken by my parents on their digital camera when we first stated dating.

This was only 7 1/2 years ago but I think we both look so young! I suppose having three kids can make you feel and look old.

These days with three kids and a hectic schedule it’s sometimes really hard to find the opportunity to have a real date night and often we find ourselves sitting down to watch a movie after all the kids have been put to bed, which can be really late. Well tonight is Friday night and here we are sitting at home again. I did however receive an offer from MyBlogSpark today that was their Date Night at Home Wanchai Ferry and Macaroni Grill dinner packs. So we decided to go ahead and make a nice dinner and at least try to enjoy that (even if the kids were in the next room).

Can you even believe that these two pictures are even the same people?

I love to cook but on a Friday evening after a long week I’m most of the time too burnt out to want to cook. I loved the ease and short amount of prep and cooking time involved in both of these box dinners. They both came with most everything you need except for the chicken and a couple little things like butter, milk and oil. The result was a meal that’s almost as good as a dish you would order at a restaurant and the entire family enjoyed it! I will say that the Wanchai Ferry Orange Chicken and the Macaroni Grill Creamy Basil Chicken Pasta was a little bit odd together because they are two different tastes but they both sounded really good so I didn’t mind and it gave us some options to choose from because my husband doesn’t like rice. So while we didn’t get to fully enjoy a nice date night together just the two of us without kids I’m hoping that the Visa gift card we still have will help us make that happen on another night.

Win It: I’m am excited to say that one of my reader’s has the opportunity to win this same prize pack we received! Boxed dinner kits from Wanchai Ferry and Macaroni Grill and a $25 Visa Gift Card!
