project 52:5

This was my husband's first time planning one of our dates. He did a wonderful job! Just look at this spread!


That fondue pot was given to us when we got married and we've never used it! Until, Friday night...
He bought white chocolate chips to melt down, strawberries, angel food cake, cheesecake, and my favorite drink!

He put far more thought into his planning then I did in the 4 dates I planned put together. I'd like to think that it's because he's a dad and doesn't have quite as much going through his head as I do on a daily basis but I know that isn't true. He's just great at planning ahead and i'm great at pulling things out of my butt! last minute things....

He even researched the best way to melt the chocolate and found that you have to kill the flame after the white chocolate begins to melt otherwise the chocolate starts firming up. We discovered this to be true but thankfully had only guinea pigged half the bag and so we were able to start fresh with the remaining chocolate left. Yum!

We sat and talked for a long time. He wasn't feeling well but still gave me a lovely back rub that he'd promised me. He's very wonderful. I'm very blessed!

This coming date is going to celebrate our 6 year wedding anniversary. We are still working out what we are going to do for sure but I can't wait!
