Looks like you might've had a bottle or two of fine wine along with dinner, as well. :)

Happy anniversary!

It's actually going on my top three food experiences of my life, for sure. And I didn't even comment about what it tasted like (though honestly? everything was so perfect i'd just be saying perfect over and over again)

And thank you darling lady!

Congratulations! Awesome! Thirteen years sure is long enough to have figured it out. Hee!

[katekat]

Thank you lady! I dunno if we've figured it all out, but we definitely have a good time finding out together!
