Date Night Friday: Feed The Fish

3.21.2014

Hi everybody!  Welcome back to date night Friday!  This week Dane and I were asked to house sit for some friends of ours while they were away on Spring Break.  One of our favourite things each day was to feed their fish.



We would feed them, then watch the dynamics of the tank, making up stories about the fish.  Who liked who, who was the alpha male (are there alpha males in fish tanks?) and who was the fatty of the tank?  Watching the fish swim around was also surprisingly calming.  Maybe someday Dane and I will have our own tank of tranquility?


So that got us thinking about dates.  Some of you out there don't have fish to feed, but I can guarantee you that somewhere around you is some form of nature that you can sit back and enjoy.  While in Australia Dane and I would venture down to the lake to feed the ducks.  If we got really lucky we would feed the eels that lived at the bottom of the pond.  This week Dane's dad put fresh feed in the bird feeders and Dane and I sat there and laughed as we watched the birds eat their meal.  And of course you could always feed the squirrels, but I am a firm believer that squirrels are evil, evil creatures, and my proof is right here.  Happy Friday Everyone!
