My Funny Valentine

Kevin is the best. I mean it, the best ever. He got me a big bunch of tulips, and he got a pitcher to put them in, rather than a vase, so I could ust the pitcher for fancies! He also got me some tulips to plant. He made me chocolate caramel truffles from scratch and a jar of caramel to put in my coffee. He got me the GREATEST pair of Volcom snowboarding pants, which I wore last night and they were AWESOME! And he took me to dinner at Purple in Woodinville where I had Chicken Marsala (delicious!) and he had lamb (...no comment) and we both had menage a trois (the wine, get your mind out of the gutter). I made him a toy chest in Virginia Tech colors that says "Wiley" on it for her dog toys and treats. I've definitely never had a better Valentine's Day. He spoiled me rotten! YAY!!!

Superbowl

I can't believe it's been 3 weeks since I made an entry! So many things have happened since then! Let's see, the Hawks played in the Superbowl and lost to the officials.
Kevin's friend Mark had a Superbowl party. It was a good time all around. In the picture with me is Gillian. Gillian painted "Go Hawks" on her face. She did it all by herself...in the mirror! After the party, we all went to Janines and hung out in the hot tub for a while. Janine was out of town at the time, but that didn't stop us. After that, when we really should have gone straight home, I made poor Kevin stop at the Goose in Bellevue.

French Fries and Cigarettes

I started a blog last week about the A-Team and I stopping at the bar in...um... Start-up? I accidentally erased it! So, on our way home from Snowboarding last week, Monday the 23rd, we were starving and stopped at a bar to eat. Nothing else was open. When we went in, everyone was smoking. Alma posed the question to the bartender "isn't there no smoking in bars in Washington?" to which the bartender replied "Yes, that is a law, but we don't comply". Pretty funny. There was not one single person in the bar that wasn't smoking. And the O's in "Booby Trap" had nipples. We knew we were in a sophisticated establishment and were in for an exquisite culinary experience. Fish and chips and chicken strips. We never got our cole slaw. The french fries were good! You can spell with them! April and Alma spelled my name! Awwwww!!!!!

I'd almost forgotten what it was like to walk out of a bar smelling like an ash tray!

microbrews

Word to the wise: When you are used to drinking bud light and things of the sort, use extreme caution when you go out and drink those specialty hand crafted microbrews. They specially hand craft them to be delicious hangover bombs.

On a different note, Kevin and I are now Rogue Citizens! We saw On Golden Pond at the Village Theater in Issaquah Wednesday, then went to the Issaquah Brewhouse. This is where the excessive consumption of beer happened and we have memberships to prove it.
