celebration

Monday, May 30, 2011

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! This weekend Ian and I celebrated our four year wedding anniversary. Ian surprised me and planned a weekend getaway just the two of us to Del Mar. SO romantic. Our room was not ready when we arrived as promised..so we waited and WAITED... got a couples massage...had a few bloody mary's...and got upgraded to a party suite for our "inconvenience." I am pretty sure we had the best view in the hotel.

My adorable husband had chocolate covered strawberries and champagne waiting in our room.


Dinner was heaven. These were too delicious not to mention. Diver scallops with popcorn puree, candied walnuts and salted caramel.

I am a sucker for Key lime pie. Most definitely the best one I have ever tasted.

In the morning we went for a walk on the beach. I was determined to find a shell...just ONE. I wanted a little souvenir. We walked up and down the beach for over two hours and guess what?!...Not a single shell. Apparently it wasn't shell season yet. Bummer.

There was this little trail that we hiked up that led to the train tracks. The view was unbelievable. As we were walking along, we were saying how we missed Maximus SO so much! At that exact moment we looked down and saw a broken "Maximus" beer bottle. A coincidence? Whatever it was we decided we were going to check out and head back home as fast as we could to see his little face.

Happy Anniversary Lindsay! What a lovely couple you make! (May must be the time for weddings. You're about the 10th person lately, besides myself, who got married in May.)

Glad you had a lovely time. It sounds lovely.

You are stunning! Happy anniversary!

And, if there are scallops on a menu, I usually get them too. I haven't gotten brave enough to try them at home, so they always feel like such a culinary treat. :)
