E is, this very moment, in her favorite city (Atlanta) making plans for the fabulous vow renewal and hopefully attending a Braves game. This date night is in honor of her!
Location – Your favorite place to watch the game.
If you’re in a town that has a major or farm team, go to a game! For our local farm team, it’s the last home game of the season tonight. If you’re in Atlanta, the Braves are home all weekend playing Washington.
If you don’t have a team, watch at a local sports bar. Make sure to wear your favorite gear!
If you don’t like sports bars, go to a batting cage.
If you want to watch from home on your giant Plasma tv with surround sound, go for it!

*Boiled peanuts, a south eastern specialty, are one of the easiest snacks to make. You can find green peanuts in the vegetable section of your market. If you’re not in the southeast, you may need to call around to find. Green peanuts are very very fresh. Fill up a pot with the peanuts, salt liberally (most recipes call for a cup of salt per gallon), fill with water to the top and heat to boiling. Keep it on the stove for 4-6 hours. You may need to add more water halfway through.
