Compromising

Daphne and I went for fish and chips on Friday. We had intended on going to Pajo's out at Steveston, but the planned changed and we ended up at one of those restaurants along the dock. When I think about it we probably should have gone to Dave's, a little bit in from the harbour, but it was easy. We were walking down the dock when we realized it was still a little cold to be eating outside. So we stepped into the nearest doorway and sat at a table by the window. I say it was a compromise because the fish and chips were nearly as good. The batter was heavier and the chips weren't even close in quality. But in return we got two things. One was the comfort of eating inside, the second was perhaps more important for me. We were able to order beer. It was Friday evening after all. The beer tasted so good going down and definitely made up for the substandard fare. Beer, even just one, is sort of magic that way.
