Honeymoon

We had the best time last weekend! Honeymooned in Southern MN. Stayed in a wonderful suite and ate dinner at a couple of places. I would not recommend the Anderson House unless you're looking for a comfort food experience. They really don't know how to cook a nice filet. On the other hand we had a wonderful dinner at Vinifera. The place is casually elegant and the foon was wonderful! I had a game hen in a rosemary sauce and it was so good I wanted to lick the plate. They also have a bananas foster that is to die for. It's rich and oh so good. If you're looking for something wonderful to do, check out David Sheridan's Packages for sailing.

It was a great weekend full of time to ourselves and activites that we like doing. I'd do it all over again in a heartbeat. In fact, I plan to do it each year.

I'm obesessed with cake.

There. I said it. I love cake.

I don't know why, but I have been on a cake kick for a while. What do you think that says? That I lack some mineral in my body that is contained in cake? Not likely. More like I love moist cake & buttercream.

sigh

I resorted to going to the grocery and getting a piece of cake on my lunch. I ate half of it. The other half is patiently waiting for me.

I think once I find that super moist yellow cake with the perfect chocolate buttercreme that I'll once again be satisfied with other desserts.

Are you romantic?

What do you consider romantic?

Pete is a romantic guy. Little things that make me realize how much he listens to what I say and little things that he does. Saturday we were going to a pot luck with some friends. He was up before I was and rolled the motorcycle down the street before starting it so it wouldn't wake me. He came back with it gassed up along with OJ for me, milk for him, donuts and flowers. It was 1 week and 1 day since we were married. What a guy!

Then I made a comment that I'd like one of those small laptops for the kitchen so that I can use it on the counter when I'm cooking. It would save me from having to print or run up and down the stairs for look ups. His first thought? I should just get that for her. It made me smile to know that.

Other romatic things? He kisses me every morning before he leaves for work. Wakes me up a little and kisses me. He leaves me a good morning text each morning and he calls later to wake me up.

Why, you ask, do I think this is romatic? It's not kisses and loving, right? But it's romantic in that he shows his love by doing those little things for me and it melts my heart when he does. I am truely lucky.

New stuff

I have big plans. Wednesday I got to go shopping with the money from the wedding. Lots of cool new things that we wanted, we now have. Only with the wedding, the house is in terrible disarray. So I'm not putting anything out until the room it belongs in is cleaned up and everything is in it's place.

We went looking at beds last night...again. I think that we're going to get the sleep number bed. Which means that we need a new headboard for a king size. I'm both excited and wary of it. Hopefully it will live up to it's expectations.

Married

I'm a Mrs!

Although I haven't had the opportunity to use my new name very much. I need to wait for the certified marriage license to get my drivers license changed. I need to go to the bank and have the accounts changed and utilities and mortgages....yikes!

It was a beautiful day. I wasn't nervous, I had a great time and best yet, I'm married to my best friend.
