anniversary six

Monday (May 29th) was our sixth wedding anniversary. 

 

(Insert something sappy about love).

 

We went out to a really nice joint called Le Pigeon where we ate rabbit, wasabi fried chicken, a pigeon wing sprinkled with cinnamon toast crunch, and desserts inspired by peanut butter and jelly (my description is not doing it justice - also, I don't even like pb&j but the dessert was one of my favorite parts).

 

In all honesty, as much as I hate being "sappy", I love my husband with the power of 10,000 suns. Everyone likes to say they married their best friend, but no one can know how very true that is for us.

 

I like myself best when I'm with him. He's my soulmate.

sick

Hey Tuesday. 

 

Last Tuesday, I felt like I was getting sick. This Tuesday, I'm still getting over that sickness.

 

Seems so long, but both Joe and I have been sick for a week! At least we've been sick together. At first it was sort of fun to eat crackers, jello, and drink soda (the fizz felt heavenly on our throats), but now it's getting old. What's more is that our dog got sick on Thursday. He hasn't been eating (just a few pieces of chicken here and there), and vet hasn't been able to figure out what's wrong :(

 

Maybe next week we'll all feel better. 

 

Anyway, this week I'm wearing all white - which is really hard with a black dog. I found the tee at a vintage shop in Seattle, and it's sooooo soft. Sorry you can't feel it. See you next week!

 

tee: thrifted in seattle, white jeans: thrifted at artifact, portland, bag: from the portland flea, sandals: madewell, sunnies: céline, yay.

what i wore: mexico

Hello. It's Tuesday. I'm cheating a little bit. 

Joe and I did take photos this week, but I thought they didn't do the outfit justice. Also I was grumpy and it was too chilly out for what I wanted to wear and all the other excuses!

okay...side note...just saw this really eccentric woman walk by the window of Dapper & Wise where I am. She had round glasses, frizzy hair, was dressed in all kinds of patterns, and was walking with a very crooked and curvy wooden staff. I know what your thinking (God knows I know what I'm thinking)...Professor Trelawney meets Gandalf...

I just wrote so many ellipses. Once I was emailing with a guy about a stylist job, and he used so many unnecessary ellipses in his emails. So one of the emails, I wrote back, "you sure do love using ellipses." And he completely ignored that comment.

...

Back to the "cheating." I have some lovely outfits for you from when we were in Mexico to enjoy. I was recently looking back over these photos and some of them made me tear up! Especially the ones with Joe.
