3 Friends, 3 Museums, and a 3 Course Dinner (Split 3 Ways)

Today my friends Miranda, Sarah, and I ventured off to that glorious place which is Fort Worth to check out some museums that were having free admission in honor of the Smithsonian Institute's Museum's-Are-Awesome day (that's not the actual title, but I don't remember the real title of the event).  Museums included the Modern Art Museum of Fort Worth (which was awesome), the Fort Worth Museum of Science and History (which was packed out with children and adults of all ages, and during which I felt horribly sick from too much lemonade consumption followed by a long walk through the heat), and finally the Amon Carter Museum of American Art (which was a nice museum, but at this point in the day I was tired and still recuperating from the sickness of earlier).  It was a fun, intellectual sort of day.

To wrap things up, we went to Razzoo's Cajun Restaurant in downtown Fort Worth.  But, not being super hungry, we decided to split a three course meal three ways - that is, share an appetizer, entree, and dessert between the three of us.  Miranda and I added frozen margaritas to the mix.  Our appetizer was fried gator tail (yeah, fried gator tale), our entree was the Cajun Platter, including corn on the cob, garlic toast, crawfish etoufee, red beans and rice, andouille sausage, and shrimp jambalaya (all in very small portions once they were split three ways, of course)...and, the crowning achievement of the mix: bread pudding.  Yeah.  Razzoo's has the best bread pudding in the world.

And so it was another successful day in Fort Worth.
