Year One

We did almost everything on our list. What was not done: a nighttime walk at the beach and remaking a flat apple pie. Jeffy is very open to a "new possible favorite" so we went to Bangkok Bay in Solana Beach for dinner on Saturday, our anniversary to the day. We celebrate the day of our second date, not the day we met, or our first date. It was a mutual decision. I ordered red curry with tofu. He ordered Bangkok fried rice with squid. We started with chicken satay. It was quite lovely and our evening was very much in focus though this image is not.

It's a shame you can't see my outfit. It was cute especially in the daylight. Before dinner, we had a few spoonfuls of Ben and Jerry's Peanut Butter Cup and Mint Cookie something or other. For his stay, we had two nights at my place and two nights at Gloria's neighbor's house. It was ideal to have a mix and a good time was had by all. We made a crock-pot meal on Sunday, a hoisin beef stew. Sadly, we ate the leftovers of the Thai before eating the stew. A comparison was rough. After not enough sleep for three nights, I began to wane on Sunday, perking up when Jeffy revealed he had M&Ms in his car. I envisioned a pocket-sized bag. My face lit up. My spirit lifted. He went on to say it was a 3-lb bag. I remember something high-pitched coming from my person. I was redeemed by the mere thought. We watched 1/2 of Chocolat that evening and he left before the sun on Monday. I slept a good long time.
