How We Met - part seven

Flashback Friday - The First Date

As mentioned before, we had plans to meet at the Marriott Center for the fireside the next Sunday. Apparently that was my idea, and it didn’t sit well with Wayne, because he wanted to be the one to do the asking for the first date - at least that’s my perception. So on Friday he called to ask me out for dinner on Saturday. My roommates were pretty excited. (I must not have been having many dates that semester!) Wayne picked me up, and we had dinner at the Brick Oven Restaurant, also known as Heaps Pizza.




Back in 1956 a little corner cafe was converted into one of Provo's first pizza parlors. A local contest determined the name to be "Heaps of Pizza". The cozy atmosphere and delicious pizza pie made us an immediate hit with both Utah County locals and BYU students. Word spread about the great food and business began to boom.
Over the years we grew up. What was once a corner pizza parlor became the popular Brick Oven Restaurant. These changes stemmed from a growing community and increased popularity. In keeping with our commitment to fresh baked products, we changed our name to Brick Oven Restaurant. We serve the same delicious hearth baked pizza pie, homemade root beer and deep dish lasagna; but now we also have Chicago style deep pan pizza pie, Italian pasta dinners, our famous Market Room Buffet, hearty sandwiches, fresh baked breads and desserts.


Afterwards, we came back to my hall lounge and played cards while watching some inane television show. Just like on the phone call, we had a great time talking and getting to know each other throughout the whole evening. The date ended a little awkwardly, however, because I wasn’t expecting a good-night kiss on the first date. But since Wayne had to wait until the second date to get the explanation for why I wouldn’t kiss him, you’ll have to wait for it as well!

Really???
it's ok, I am all against kissing unless you are truly "In love!"

This is as suspenseful as "who shot JR?" ;)
