you don’t eat bread, wine, goat cheese, and donuts for dinner??? you may call it weird… i call it genius. i eat this meal with my eyes closed and pretend i am in paris. where they would totally and undoubtedly understand my need for goat cheese and donuts in one sitting. oh paris….someday….

where do i begin with molly + todd… the fact that we all went to high school together? or that i worked with molly lifeguarding when we were about 16? or perhaps the fact that i dated her brother freshman year of high school (hi brian!)…haha no i will leave that story out of this…. […]

it’s been pretty hectic lately in the Woltering household.  so hectic in fact that when chris and i stopped to think about it, we hadn’t gone out on a date night in over FOUR MONTHS. how in the world did THAT happen! date nights are usually a weekly occurance that somehow got swept away in […]
