Dinner date at home!

Our anniversary celebration was quite different than any of our other anniversaries. Last year on our anniversary we were anticipating the birth of our baby girl. But this year she joined us in our celebration. We went to Wegmans to pick out some fun, maybe a little fancy (fancy for us anyway), delicious food for dinner. Noni fell asleep on the way there and actually slept the whole time in the store. It felt like Peter and I were actually on a date by ourselves so that was nice.
We chose 2 rolls of sushi: California roll and Eel and avocado. Mmmmmm! Its been so long since we have had sushi. Then we of course got shrimp. Peter wanted some grilled fish so we got Tilapia. Yum! We each picked out a block of cheese. But not the regular cracker barrel stuff, the kind that you really don’t know what it is or tastes like but man it looks good. I picked a Fontinella, hard sharp cheese is my fav, and Peter picked a peppercorn mozzarella string cheese. We LOVE cheese! We got some fresh hummus eaten with grilled bread and I made bruschetta with our homegrown basil. Overall it was an interesting combo?We each made something and we kind of ate it in stages which is what I love. I love picking and having a little bit of everything. Oh yea and we had ice cream for dessert. It was all very good but I had to laugh because its so not a typical romantic, candles and wine anniversary dinner which we used to do. We were passing Noni back and forth taking turns feeding her to keep her happy, (she had her first taste of sushi and tilapia) then taking care of a messy diaper, conversation being interrupted constantly but its okay because that is our life right now. We love it. And I think we are really adjusting well to this new way of life. We’ve had some bumps and rocky spots but we are doing okay. We wouldn’t change our 5 years for anything!
