Steakhouse Anniversary Dinner
To celebrate our 8 years together (we have been married 2 - but known each other for 8!) - my husband and I went out for a delicious dinner! We went to my favorite steakhouse, but I don't get the steak. I CRAVE their crab cake! It looks like this...
I also get the shrimp & lobster bisque. AMAZING! Then, because it was our anniversary - they bring out a delicious cheesecake for desert!
Along with a few glasses of wine, it was the perfect dinner! A wonderful celebration. Can't wait till our 40th anniversary!

Mardi Gras Part II
So it's been another weekend filled with parades and fun! I love to use my beads to fill up vases around the house. This is one of my favorite vases I got as a wedding gift!
It looks perfect on my little marble side table in the living room!
We caught a lot of beads last night!
It's been a great Mardi Gras - I can't wait till next year! Until then - Laissez Les Bon Temps Rouler!!!!

Ash Wednesday & Lent
Ash Wednesday is next week. It's the day after Mardi Gras - everyone parties until midnight - and then is stops. The season of Lent leads up to Easter (40 days). It lasts from Ash Wednesday to Maundy Thursday (Easter Eve) and it's a spiritual time, especially for the Catholic faith - a time of reflection. My husband is Catholic and I'm Episcopal. They are pretty similar in beliefs - we have a Bishop instead of the Pope, being a major difference. No meat on Fridays - so in my household I will be making a lot of seafood. A lot of people "give up" something for Lent. One of my friends gave up alcohol once. I have chosen to give up Facebook. Can I REALLY go 40 days with no status updates,check-ins, looking everyone's cute baby and pet pictures? I will have to because I have already made a promise that I will not be on Facebook. It may require prayer - when I have the temptation. I will still have Instigram and my blog though. I'm going back to the era of no Facebook!
