Banff getaway!

So the fine fellow (fiancé!) and I are at the banff springs hotel for the weekend as it's his birthday! Upon getting here, he dropped his glove on the ground...it looks alive!!

Lord of the Rings

Alright, so last night we went to Brava - so delish! Crispy Crackling Chicken with Mac and Cheese and carrots. You don't even know, it's so good.

Afterwards we headed back to fine fellow's place for some ice cream and to finish the second half of the 2nd Lord of the Rings. (I quote these movies far too much...soon no one will want to watch them with me :< ) But ah, The Two Towers has so many good parts! One day I'll be an Ent...you'll see!

All in all a great evening!




Oh, did I mention I'm engaged?
Because...well, I AM! :D

Now who's the Lord of the Rings ;)

Seriously though, I'm so happy :D

Fare well for meow :)!

Hope your evening was as splendidilyumptious as mine!

Well hey there! Hope your Valentine's Day was filled with awesomeness and delicious things :) And hopefully you can realize that you shouldn't need a special day to show someone how much you love or appreciate them, really it's just another day ;)
(I can say this from experience as I've been at both ends of the spectrum).

Hopefully your day looked nothing like this, even if you were alone (unless your day was completely adorable whilst being forlorn?).


Anything exciting happen? Just a regular day?
Fine fellow and I made a delicious dinner (seriously, so good) of Chicken and Broccoli Alfredo. It was a homemade sauce and mmm - 'nuff said ^.^ ~! I also brought the newest skittles over, Confused Skittles (or something?...they're in a purple bag), which are quite delish! They are slightly confusing, because none of the flavors match the color. But they're good flavors :)
And, as per my request, we watched Gladiator (extended edition...which is basically 3 hours long)...Ah! Such a good movie! In my eyes anyways, Russell Crowe is awesome.
All in all, a good night - love you Strongbad (fine fellow -- same thing)!

So today, I managed to make myself look decent before work. Trust me...I usually am NOT a pretty sight in the morning (plus there is never makeup put on for work). Why, you may ask, did I make myself presentable? Recall I mentioned yesterday that the fine fellow and I were going out for dinner tonight? Well, we're going out for dinner tonight! So I figured I should at least look half decent for the world (and fine fellow, of course), especially since we're going to a nicer restaurant called Brava Bistro. It's on 17th and, dear goodness, it's good! I'm excited :)

(Yep, you get to see a lot of me on here) :)

One last thing. Lately we've been having fantastic weather here! Seriously...so nice. But 2 days ago, all of the sudden...dump. Dump of snow. Whyyy?!? I'm used to no snow this year, and I like it that way. Too much white in this picture for my likings.
One nice thing about it being dark and snowing in the city, it makes everything glow just a little bit. Kind of pretty.

Anyways, thanks for checking in and listening to my rants ;)

Hope all is well!

Ciao for meow :)!

May this photo bring you joy

It speaks for itself...

Love Day?

(Animal abuse)

So Happy Valentine's and good day to you all. What do you figure?

This is actually my first Valentine's Day that I've not been single! (PS, things are still going great if you were curious), And what did I want to do for Valentine's? Absolutely nothing! It's going to be far too crazy out tonight, so in we stay! I have a slight idea of what we're doing, but you never know...so I'll fill you in tomorrow ;) However, we are going out for a post Valentine's dinner tomorrow :D!

What're your memories from Valentine's Day?

I remember back in elementary school...making a little "mailbox" (or rather, folder to hang from your desk). And you bring in a little Valentine and usually also a treat for everyone in the class. (I don't know if this is how it was everywhere...as I did grow up in a small town). I'm fairly certain we were sent home with a list of all the kids in the class (which you knew them all anyways) and the next day, you come with something for everyone! And then we'd have a little party! Why don't we do this nowadays?
1. I want a little cheesy valentine! ('Be Mine' and 'You're cute' and such - so lame) :D
2. Party with delicious heart shaped things - hello!? (Plus, you can never have too much red food coloring) ;)

I also remember always getting a Valentine's Day gift from my mother (well, parents I guess). Chocolate and a little something else. At least my mom always loved me :D

So what're you getting up to this evening? Are you celebrating another time or do you celebrate at all?
Share YOUR memories :)

Byeas for meow :)!


PS. I used to think of Valentine's as single awareness day... I just heard on the radio that 15% of women will send flowers to themselves (at their office or whatever) to show off. That sounds a little ridiculous to me x) But you do what you've got to do! Like I used to loved getting gifts from my mother...so whatever works! :D

And just think, chocolate will be on clearance tomorrow ;)

And if nothing else, always remember...

(what the heck??) x]

Ya ya, I'm here

Today was one of those mornings you know...

There's not much motivation to get out of bed most mornings...let alone a MONDAY!


My apologies, I was kind of MIA for a few days there. But never fear - I have returned!

So weekend and such. Fine fellow and I hung out for...well basically the whole thing ;) Watched some extended edition Lord of the Rings, perused the mall, got him a haircut (which looks nice :D ), and celebrated a pseudobirthday (for fine fellow) by having a feast of roast beast followed by delicious cake. It was so good :3

How was your weekend? What's new in your world?

One positive thing has resulted from today. On the way to work I saw this and suddenly I knew...all my clothing worries would be solved for the remainder of my days.

(ya...right...)

Ta ta for meow :)!

Late night cookies

Hmm... well basically, FINE FELLOW IS BACK :D

Dang that was a long time. But all is well!

We made cookies at 10:30 last night ;) They're tasty.

Enjoy your hump day!

Toodles for meow :)!
