Happy Anniversary, Baby!
It's our five year anniversary. We celebrate the anniversary of the day we met. We don't believe in marriage (we believe it exists, but like termites or a plague of locusts, it's something that happens to other people) and it's hard to pick any other particular day without venturing into the land of too much information, so we celebrate the first time we ever saw each other in person. He was standing in the lobby of the CR Conference hotel talking with Lisa Walford. He seemed to be standing in a glowing white light, like an angel. And sure enough, he turned out to be my angel.
Tonight for anniversary dinner I am making his favorite: pasta-less lasagna! I'll post the recipe later on... it changes a bit every time.
I am celebrating by going down to 1200 today... I'm most likely going out with Davy Arizona, aka Asparagusphobe, tomorrow night, so I need to trim some calories off the surrounding days. Restaurant food is so high calorie.
Just checking in quickly between meditation and yoga... today is Jonathan's later class, and then I have meetings all day in town. Sleeping until 5:20 is sleeping late for me. Most days I'm leaving for the train at 5:45 am to make it to Jonathan's 7 am or 7:15.

Happy anniversary, you two! It's funny - our 5 year anniversary is coming up December 21st.
(My man and I also celebrate the day we first met face to face, as we are not married but have basically been cohabitating since day one...)
Who needs diamonds and legal documents when you've got love?

Happy Anniversary from your mother-in grace! In my mind, though, it's really the end of July...... Coincidentally, I made your Lasagne last night and it was very yummy! JD :-)
