On our first Valentine's Day together, Nathan and I decided to give each other books. We're both bookworms, perhaps best evidenced by our book-themed wedding, so it seemed fitting. And we've continued the tradition during our relationship. The first year, we added The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society, The Rim of the Prairie, The Graveyard Book, and James and the Giant Peach to our library. Last year, the Valentine's Day library grew to include Lamb and The Believers. And this year, we've added This Book Will Change Your Dog's Life, Why Does My Dog Do That?, Michelangelo and the Sistine Chapel, Great House, and The Pioneer Woman: Black Heels to Tractor Wheels.
As far as dinner goes, everything tasted fine, but didn't turn out exactly as it was supposed to. The tart filling all gathered on one side and leaked through the bottom of the pan, but it sitll tasted good. And the chicken was perfect, even though I adjusted the recipe. We had some "expensive" Trader Joe's wine ($7!!) and asparagus and rolls. And the best part of staying in was that we could sit and talk as long as we wanted without getting rushed out.
And what did Shelby get for Valentine's Day? A fancy treat, lots of pets and cuddles and peanut butter. Yum.
