This is a homage to how much I love and appreciate having Rachel Thomas in my life.
I can't imagine life any other way.
We do not put a lot into Hallmark Holidays, as we have some strong opinions about them. But that doesnt mean that we can't celebrate in our own ways. So I wanted to just spend the day doing things that Rachel enjoys doing. The hardest part was convincing her that I was taking pictures for myself, as I NEVER take pictures. Unless it is of a serial number or something....
We started the day with tea, and then ventured into the garden. There is only so much that I can do here, so I usually spend my time doing some landscaping. Today, I decided to level out some of the step-stones and tried to make it a bit easier to get up and down the hill.
Rachel LOVES the thrift stores. So of course we had to make a stop in town to see if there were any goodies to snag on the cheap.
It's no secret that we don't eat meat in our home. So the Burger King Impossible Whopper is a go-to when we need some fast food. But there was something else Rachel craved this day: Wendy's Frosty and Fries! Despite them being out of chocolate, it was still an awesome combination. I even added some of my soda to the frosty and had a little float.
Rachel loves her board games. So I put the Nintendo Switch down for a day and we played some table top games! Scattergories is a popular one around here.
What is Valentines without chocolate covered strawberries! Good thing we had everything we needed to make it ourselves! Just look at that precision.
We don't really go out to restaurants or anything so we usually eat in. We made a nice thanksgiving style dinner with homemade mashed potatoes, some green beans, croissants and a vegan turkey. Then we ate in while watching one of her favorite shows on the projector: Gossip Girl.
