yes, we are now *that* couple.

A few weeks ago (rather, the very day they came out), RH and I got new iPhones. Yes, we waited in line for hours to get our grubby little hands on those shiny, beautiful gadgets from heaven. In fact, we waited in two lines, separately (don’t ask…it’s a long story). When we finally got called...

my dad was with me on my wedding day.

During the course of my relationship with RH, one of the things that has gotten me the most emotional is my sadness that he and my dad never had a chance to meet. To get to know each other. To bond over their shared ritual of watching each of the big horse races on TV...

my wedding flip flops

I usually spend a good 98% of the summer in flip flops. So it was only fitting that I ended up wearing them on my wedding day. I searched high and low for the “perfect” wedding shoe. I wanted something flat, open toe, and affordable. And not “bridal white.” I ordered shoes online and sent...

sweet french toast!

Last week, I took advantage of the holiday by making a special breakfast for me and RH: crème brulée french toast with sweetened whipped cream and blueberries. I had made the french toast once before, years ago, and I remembered it being amazing and delicious. And it was delicious this time, but—sadly—it wasn’t nearly as...

happy monthaversary!

RH and I went to dinner tonight to celebrate the eve of our monthaversary. This is probably the only time we’ll celebrate our “monthaversary,” but it was a nice evening out. Good food, better company…and I got to show off my new haircut! I love you, sweetie. To many more!
