Ciao! I think if you swap coffee for gelato then we’ve clearly covered the coffee and a walk date, we walked miles! 🙂 We also relaxed, and John clearly chose a restaurant the night he wanted lasagne… They didn’t have it once we ordered but he still picked it… Clutching at straws maybe?!?! So here […]
This week we go on holiday, Italy for 10 days – I’m sure we can tick a few dates off the ever growing list while we’re there, surely we’ll have a coffee and a walk! This week I picked another one of mine: A candle lit dinner at home, with no technology all night. I […]
What a treat – in lieu of not being allowed smoked salmon*, I chose pancakes with fruit and maple syrup… We had this at a leisurely pace following our nieces 5th birthday part – great recovery! * Update from July, I have since found out I CAN eat smoked salmon! Oh well it was a […]
I’m lost on the numbers now! I forgot to pick an envelope on Monday, so here we are on Tuesday evening when the jar was remembered! And it was worth the wait… Breakfast in bed. Kate’s choice, John makes it! Hoorah! As we have a busy morning (hairdressers and a 5 year olds birthday party) […]
Finally a date! We managed to go out and have dinner on Friday without me being sick, crying or falling asleep – an achievement! I did however fail as I didn’t take a single picture… I thought I was going to be sick the amount we ate but it was all good! As previously explained […]
So it’s been a while… I’d like to think it was just a blip though and NOT John being proved right that I wouldn’t keep the blog going. Truth be told although we have opened envelopes we’ve not actually had a date for some weeks… There is many reasons for this from work schedules to […]
So on top of counting dates in weeks, we’re also counting them for another exciting reason… We’d like to introduce you to Dot. Dot is due to make our family 3 at the end of September. Since almost the beginning of this blog we’ve known this news and the dates have been very friendly to […]
So, it’s been a busy few weeks… Hence the joint post! We haven’t even been for tapas yet… mainly due to illness, work commitments from both of us (on different days so we couldn’t even time that right!) Week 16 I opened an interesting one, a little Monopoly inspired maybe?! Add something of your choice […]
On the sunniest day of the year so far (it’s only April so there WILL be more!) I got home form work to find the lounge/dining room in candle light and some delicious smells coming from the kitchen… It was date night! A little late but who’s complaining, I have broken the rules on other dates… […]
Yes, we’re still doing jigsaws! And to make our lives complete for Easter – following a treasure hunt! – my Mum got us a case to keep the jigsaw in! It’s amazing, it fits perfectly on our coffee table and we can zip it up, put it away and the pieces are where we left […]
