Happy 25th Anniversary!

Today is A.'s and my 25th wedding anniversary. We got married when we were 25 years old and are both 50 now. We have been married for half our lives. That is amazing! We've been through a lot of major life events over the course of our relationship but we are still friends and still love each other. I think we have done pretty darn good! I can not imagine being with anyone else.

So far today we went to my osteopath appt. together and then went out to lunch at the Waterworks Cafe next to the art museum. It was very funny as their water list was longer than their wine list! We had a $13 bottle of Tasmanian sparkling water (only because it was our anniversary, normally we wouldn't spend $13 on a bottle of water!) which was actually very good, clean and clear, not salty and mineral tasting. A. had the most expensive cheesesteak on the planet that had truffle cheese whiz and was made with bison. A. said it was the best cheesesteak he'd ever had also (I took a bite, and it was excellent) and I had a chicken, pesto, fresh mozzarella, roasted red pepper panini that was also very good. When we ordered the expensive water A. mentioned to the waiter that it was our anniversary, so the waiter brought out a plate decorated with Happy Anniversary in chocolate sauce, a candle and a small serving of a very yummy Sangria sorbet with our coffee and tea. Very nice!

That's about it, no other real plans at this point. A.'s upstairs back to work, I'm about to pick up Z. at the bus stop from camp and if we feel like it maybe we'll all go out to dinner tonight. With our trip to Mexico coming up we didn't want to plan another trip or weekend away right now. Maybe we'll do something special in the fall (when the weather is cooler).

Happy silverness! Here's to 25 more.

But I must say, "truffle cheese whiz" sounds like an oxymoron... :^)

Thanks (to both of you)!

I know what you mean about the cheese whiz, but honestly it was really good!
