Dinner, mundane stuff, life

I had a great dinner with my dearest last eve. Our dinner rocked-shiraz poached pear, gorgonzola and cashew salad, with pear and wine reduction vinaigrette, gorgonzola and dijon crusted tenderloin with beef jus and wine reduction, served over garlic parmesan mashed. SO GOOD! It was great, and believe it or not, it was quick to prepare. We had a nice cheese selection after, cranberry wesleydale, moroccan spice gouda, madagascar green peppercorn, some more of the gorgonzola, spiced air cured genoa salami, and some lovely big olives with some of our favorite crisp breads. I am still stuffed lol! We had such a nice evening, so nice to be with my most favorite man!

We were out part of the day today, bought more summer clothes for the kids, I left my ring at the jewelers, it is still a bit too loose, I don't want it to fall off. Hopefully it fits better this time. We had lunch out, but Lauryn was really feeling unwell by the time we got done at the mall, so we came home, she and Josh are napping and Dave went off to buy the groceries. I need to go out to the drugstore after, and then go and exchange a pair of shoes. Have I mentioned a million times how I am dying to wear summer clothing and go running outside? 4 more weeks, 4 more weeks-I can keep saying it.

I just found out a friend from school nearly dies 5 years ago, they had given him 6 mos to live. Many surgeries later he is now ok, has a nice family and is managing well. Life is so fragile at times, it makes you appreciate what you have so much more.
