my husband made this heart out of magnets on the fridge. i like him.

How can one year feel so long and so short at the same time?

Yesterday was our ONE YEAR anniversary. 
We spent most of it driving back from NC in a car with no air conditioning,
eating the most missed, most wonderful food (at the restaurant where we had our first date in 2006!),
and munching on ice and slushies & car dancing for eight ours.

Jeff, I’m so excited about our future adventures. I love you more than ice cream.

The first valentines day that Jeff and I were together (2007, whaaaat?), I made him cheesecake bites with raspberry sauce swirled into each one in the shape of a heart. I had never made cheesecake before, and don’t have a clue what recipe I used, but they turned out really well.

I wasn’t planning to make cheesecakes again this year, but I stumbled across this recipe on valentines eve and bought the ingredients the next day. The nilla wafer crust on these is amazing. I was planning to make the caramel sauce from the cheesecake recipe, but accidentally made my usual out of habit. I swirled some nutella into the second half of the cheesecakes and still can’t decide which ones I liked more. I do know that if both were in front of me right now, I would eat both.

One morning Jeff had five of these minis for breakfast. Not nutritious, but definitely worth it.

My parents have been married for 24 years today!

I am very proud of them and love them so so much.

Happy Anniversary, parents!
