Roses are Red

Tonight - my amazing fiance had a little surprise for me! Last night he worked midnight-8am to do inventory so I knew he was tired all day long, in fact, he napped all day. Then I came home from work and he said he was going to the grocery store to pick up some things. He had put a pizza in the oven for me :)

that's not the surprise

when he came back from the store he brought home my surprise!



isn't he so sweet! He even brought home a gift for my kitty - some wet food! (she only eats dry food)



as you can see she enjoyed it!!

New addition...

Today's blog is dedicated to the new addition to the family:

Warm, soft and absolutely adorable...




THEY ARE MY NEW UGGS!!!!

haha - you laugh but my feet will be roasty and warm this winter... very important to make sure that I do not get COLD FEET :)

I bought my black pair last year and after I realized that I wore them nearly every day for 4 months - it was time to get another pair...

Knotties and Save the Dates

I know I haven't blogged in a while - I've been super busy at work and also wedding planning. I go on theknot.com a lot for my planning and I'm on the message boards talking to other local brides and getting some good - thrifty - ideas :)

The day after the John Mayer concert a couple "knotties" and I met for dinner at California Pizza Kitchen in Natick. Here are some pictures:

and here's a group shot:


Also - I've been working on my Save the Date magnets - today when I go over my parents for dinner I'm planning on having my mom and sister (maid of honor) help me assemble them and come up with a list of people to definitely send them to. I think they really tie in the whole "tiffany box" theme. I know this blog isn't very funny but it's a step closer to the wedding!!

Your body is a wonderland....

Wednesday night Anthony and I went to see John Mayer in concert at the Verizon Wireless Arena in Manchester.

HE WAS AMAZING!!! We had 5th row seats and it was so great. He played classics such as No Such Thing and Bigger. He played his new stuff like Gravity and Waiting on the World to Change and he threw in a killer cover of Don't Need No Doctor and even played your body is a wonderland!!! (A rarity for John). Here are some pics:

MMM Meat

So my man decided to call into work yesterday.... and I was kind of annoyed mainly because he got to sleep in and watch TV all day while I was at work. But, he redeemed himself with the meal below.

you ask why I don't know how to cook? Who needs to when your guy does it!!



It makes the macaroni and cheese I made the night before look pitiful. Oh well.

Anyway - tonight we are going to see John Mayer in Manchester! 5TH ROW SEATS!!! I cannot wait... i'm sure i'll blog about my night as we can bring a camera in!!

oh Pita Pit....

When I was at Syracuse there was this little amazing place called "The Pita Pit" which conveniently was 1 street over from campus in the middle of about 6 bars.



It was also open until at least 3am and they would deliver to your dorm. It was THE ABSOLUTE BEST. Now, since I have graduated 3 years ago - I have been going through severe... SEVERE withdrawl. I miss my plain pita with shredded lettuce, grilled chicken and ranch dressing. I miss the smell, the tatste and the happiness that Pita Pit brought me with every bite.

Well - last night, thanks to the greatest fiance ever, I was reunited with my food love.

No - he did not drive me to Syracuse.... he brought me to a new location - in Boston.

And I was able to savor the amazing flavor of my special chicken, lettuce and ranch:






If all of the other AMAZING things that my fiance does for me wouldn't make me thrilled to spend forever with him......... this trip sealed the deal.

Babe, I love you.

Love is Sweet

Tonight while driving around, Anthony decided he wanted to make a fruit salad.

I have never made a fruit salad before.

yes. I am serious.

So if you don't know Anthony then you do not know that he works at Shaw's Supermarkets... and not only is he a manager but he is the PRODUCE manager. Yes, the ruler of fruit (and veggies, and weird dips). Anyway, he claims while picking out a "perfect" pineapple that he is the best fruit cutter in his department and that he would show me how to make a great fruit salad. So we got home and got to work - I think it turned out pretty nice.

NOTE: he just HAD to buy a new tupperware container for the salad and I warned him it wouldn't be big enough - needless to say it barely fit. I may not know how to cook or make fruit salad - but I totally excel at spacial situations.

Anthony said you grab the pineapple by the top and rip it off... then you slice it!



Next we did the melons - and um... well.... yea






Anyways I think that I took quite the initiative when I volunteered (on my own!) to cut the strawberries... and even though I managed to get the top of one still in the salad (that Anthony pointed out to me while he was watching me like a hawk)... I think that I could quite possibly be the BEST strawberry cutter ever.... alive.



And finally - our salad... and a fun pic to end the post with!
