I had another lazy day today, only getting out to visit with Miss Andie at Tehku Tea Company. These folks are just so nice. I had an iced Pomegranate tea with a Cha-Cha Chicken sammich. OMG – Soooo good!!
That Andie-girl, I tell you, she is so good to me. She gave me some goodness out of her own kitchen – Reindeer Crunch, Chocolate Chocolate Chip Stout cookies, and the new love of my life, Peppermint Bark. I am embarrassed to admit it, but I have already devoured the Peppermint Bark. I let Future Hubby have one tiny little piece, but the rest was mine (Andie, he loved it as well.)
When I arrived home, Future Hubby had set the stage for a romantic evening. He had candles going, music playing in the background and dinner was cooking. He made a rump roast with mashed potatoes and mixed veggies. It was very yummy.
Later we sat with the house lights off, just light from the fire and our Christmas trees glowing softly. We snuggled on the couch and just talked about how much we loved each other. Ahhhhh, yes, it gets quite sickening around here sometimes. As I remind my friends – Future Hubby and I have only been together for a little over 18 months; we don’t hate each other yet.
Tomorrow we’ll be up early to pack up and head to my mom’s for the holiday. My mom wasn’t going to make chocolate chip cookies for me, but you know what? I can live with eating them over the two days we’re going to be there. Life will go on. I’ve been really great with my calories this week, so I’m not worried.
