Valentines Day

It started off a little rough, I had to go early in the morning to get a holter monitor (electrods that show if you have any heart problems) removed. But hubby came with me and we had breakfast at Kitchen on the Ridge. The greasy spoon is becoming a thing of the past with all the franchises around but this restaurant has a sort of sixties type vibe with fantastic coffee (watch out s'bucks) and a great variety of food. The hubster had eggs, hash browns, toast, bacon and sausage. It was called the 222 breakfast. And that wasn't the calorie content lol. I had a fabulous croisant stuffed with scrambled egg, cheese and ham, and a side of fresh fruit. And it was fresh. Melon, apple slices, strawberries and orange slices.
Valentine evening we went to see Paul Blart - Mall Cop

A very funny movie. It was perfect for us, because we have different tastes in movies. I like chick flicks and the hubster likes anything where an alien comes out of someones chest or buildings explode. So when we go to a movie together we usually see something funny.
Then we had a late dinner at White Spot. I had a great Tuscan shrimp salad and Arnie had fetticini with mushrooms and beef slices. It was a lovely dinner. We hadn't been out to a movie and dinner probably for about 12 years, so it was a special treat. It's not that we don't want to go, it's just that its so expensive. But we had gift cards for the movie and White Spot, so we wound up only spending $30.00. It was a great valentines day.

Love in Bloom


My wall hanging is finished. The name I have given it is "Love in Bloom". A little more catchy than rose in heart lol.
