Introducing...

the namesake of this blog - the Cheap Date.  She's a beauty, no?  Evan and I had an impromptu happy hour date at Crush this afternoon (hence the not so great pics from my phone)...both of us wistfully hoping that the Cheap Date was the featured drink on the chalkboard so that we could make an official introduction on her special day.  Unfortunately, we were a day late.  However, out waiter kindly informed us that they just received a huge box of fresh ginger, so we're sure to pop in there and see her name on the board sometime soon.  Crush makes homemade ginger ale using the freshest of ginger, so this cheap date is something exquisite.  As an aside, note that we both ordered the same thing to eat.  This happens ALL the time and I love it.  For the sake of the rest of you, though, we'll try to spice it up a bit.  Aside from the drinks and tasty happy hour eats, Crush has some pretty amazing artwork at the moment - I'm talking zippers, gears, chains... just check it out.
