we ran into friends while out on our valentine date to dinner
and one of them asked me,
“so, what did you guys get each other…?”
we looked at each other and kind of giggled,
because lets face it,
we don’t really spend money on valentines day.
not that i am against it, we just don’t usually.
{may or may not be because we are still recovering from christmas…}
i have beautiful flowers
{orchids and stargazer lilies that i can watch bloom all week long!}
and he got lots of love notes strewn about his bed with all the little things i love about him…
i was going to do more, but i knew this year is a “gesture” year.
the love notes mean more today than the random things we would have purchased anyway.
the only thing that would change my mind on that, is maybe the cute white hutch/desk i found on craigslist that will soon live in my kitchen… i would’ve accepted that offering as well…
we went to try out a new greek place near us in the glorious area of carmel valley,
and it didn’t disappoint.
i may have to start up a list of places to try if you are in the area, because these babies went down oh so easy.
@ Taverna Blu
{herbed feta fries}
{gyro + steak kabob plate}
yes… MORE fries…
{not pictured, we met up with our new fabulous friends who have traveled the world in the 6 months they’ve been married, and they walked us to our new favorite gelato place!}
{dark chocolate with cayenne and raspberry sorbet gelato at Chuao. yes please}
the whole day i was trying to remember what we even did last year…
to have so many places to go and my favorite aunt to watch my child
was the best gift of all.
