Weekend Getaway

A few holiday week/end highlights:

  • Fabulous thanksgiving meals with each of our families, including all of our grandparents and my 18-month old niece! (Also, I made cranberry sauce for the first time and really enjoyed it - I added red grapes to the cranberries for a sweeter compote). My niece came up to me and gave me a hug, which made me melt, and also sat on my lap while I fed her pumpkin pie. Can't get enough of the little cutie.
  • A weekend getaway to visit a great friend for her birthday, which included everything from cheesecake for breakfast to homemade pasta and meatballs, to a lazy afternoon with Doctor Who to a new gay bar at 2am. Fabulous time.
  • Visits to two potential wedding venues, one of which is a decent option and the other of which is a great option that just may end up being our spot! It is SO exciting to be able to start visualizing it all -- can't wait to set our date so the fun DIY planning can begin!
The from-scratch meal that made me appreciate Italian food again
