We are two years old today.



This is the first day of my life
I'm glad I didn't die before I met you
But now I don't care I could go anywhere with you
And I'd probably be happy

I Love My Boyfriend Pie

Homemade Blueberry Pie!


I made a blueberry pie with vanilla crumble topping tonight for our 17 month anniversary. We don't really celebrate these monthiversaries, but we're game for any occasion to have decadent food! If you look at the recipe, you might notice that I substituted almond paste/marzipan for vanilla paste and flax seeds because that's what I found at Trader Joe's. Turns out almond paste is probably something thicker, so my topping mix came out to be more frosting-like than crumb-like. I got a chance to use the new/old food processor my mom passed down to me though, and that was terribly exciting! Also, I might have added a bit too much sugar to the blueberry filling, but it was still sooo good warm with vanilla ice cream and whipped cream.

Being with this adorable boy is better than all the warm blueberry pies and decadent vanilla ice cream in the world.

Happy Valentine's Day

I found a reason to keep living
Oh and the reason, dear, is you
I found a reason to keep singing
Oh and the reason, dear, is you

Oh I do believe
If you don't like things you LEAVE
For some place you never gone before

Pa papa papa papa
Pa papa papa papa
Pa papa papa papa
Pa papa papa papa

Honey, I found a reason to keep living
And you know the reason, dear it's you
And I've walked down life's lonely highways
Hand in hand with myself
And I realized how many paths have crossed between us

Oh I do believe
You're all what you perceive
What comes is better that what came before

Oh I do believe
You're all what you perceive
What comes is better that what came before

And you'd better come, come, come, come to me
Come, come, come to me
