I was warned that there’d be some envelopes I wouldn’t like… And this week might be one! I’ll let the picture do the talking…
So, following our lovely relaxing spa day we got back to freshly made pizza dough in the bread maker (thank you timer function!). The chosen topping was Chinese chicken, mushroom, peppers and mountains of cheese. One half had pineapple too, but not the half I ate!! Movie choice was decided by Amazon Prime Video (ie […]
This week we’ve got another movie night to look forward to, with an added activity… Make home made pizzas and watch a movie My Christmas present bread maker gets another outing (it does get used more than just on date night!) as it also makes dough! Now the film, it technically should be John’s choice… […]
Well, as Monday mornings go picking this envelope made it a good start to the day! John had to be up early (5am!) to get a train to London so I was a bit bleary eyed when I made my choice. I’m still not sure there is a method to my madness and I just […]
Apologies for the combined post, it’s been a busy week! So, this week I picked one of the ones John had been dreading – an early idea that was then super-sized but couldn’t be retrieved! So, this week, we’re chilling! Date night will consist of us reading and listening to my choice of music. The […]
So Friday arrived with snow, freezing fog and other such January loveliness… Perfect for movie night!!! There was a slight delay in proceedings as the new album from our faves Above & Beyond landed in John’s inbox, so it HAD to be listened to before anything else could happen! It was worth it, plenty of […]
So, this week I picked my card as normal on Monday morning – from our newly kitted out bedroom!! (As the bed was delivered on Sunday at 7pm we were a bit tired and therefore this seems worthy of a mention!) This week I picked a card that looked familiar, it was one of mine! […]
So, date day arrived, on the back of 2015’s first storm, luckily when we set off the worst had passed and although still pretty windy the sun was out… Which was good as I had requested a sea view!! Its becoming apparent that I’m to decide on all aspects not the date once picked, I […]
Today John got some good news, so a celebratory dinner was called for. Two dates in a week 🙂 Being ever practical and sensible (!) we first Sainsbury’s for picnic supplies for our date the next day. This turned out to be be a talking point as after examining the packets of ham we felt […]
More fear in the eyes of John this morning as the second envelope was chosen. Over the last week I’ve been trying to decide if I need a strategy – do I start at one end and work through, or go random each time?! The need for a strategy comes from the admission that John […]
