Happy Anniversary to Us!


It was our 3 year wedding anniversary yesterday.
We both took off work and spent the day together. We were finally able to go to the movies! It has been a year...gosh we suck.

Then we went to a fancy dinner at the Comus Inn. Thing is this. We chose this place b/c it isn't a place you take your kids to. It overlooks the mountains and a beautiful valley. Dinner at sunset and then by candle light. And we are not talking cheap. Our dinner ran us $240. So WHY was someone having a party for their 7 year old there last night?? They were loud, and it kinda blew a little of the romance.... So you have to wonder, after you are done eating...was this worth $240? Well we ordered the 3 course menu with a wine pairing for each course. First course, Miso Scallops...there were 3 scallops on the plate with some kinda fancy fried mushrooms, Second Course, Lamb chops w/merlot and pistacio glase and another funky type of mushroom. You would think for the main course you would have 6 lamb chops....I had two. Third course, Pecan Brownie with chocolate glaze and coffee gellato. I can't say that 3 scallops, two lamb chops & a brownie were worth $120. Along with the atomospere of a rich Joan Rivers look alike throwing her 7 year old grand daughter a birthday party. But then the sweet little girl came over to our table to wish us a happy anniversary and to share her birthday cake. I felt a little bad for bad thoughts I had about the table, but then was delivered the bill.... I am sure she would have enjoyed Chuck-E-Cheese a lot more.
Funny thing though, hubby was eating his Lobster with Fois Gras. What is Fois Gras? Well it looked like a cooked portabello, so we both took a taste. Ummm, that shit was NOT mushroom.. when we asked the waitress, she smiled and said "Oh Fois Gras is Seared Duck Liver!" We both made a dash for the ice water and looked like two rednecks in for a fancy shmansy quick din din as we gargled and swooshed the bottled wata!
But aleast the sex was good last night.... sorry for the TMI.

My parents went on a trip for their anniversary a couple of years ago, and my brother and I called to make arrangements to take care of their dinner at this restaurant.

The guy on the phone said an average meal for two was about $250. I was shocked - but we paid it.

They had a great time. They didn't have a bunch of 7-year-olds running around though.

Glad to hear the sex was good!

Belated Happy Anniversary!!!!!

In that case Nic...did it twice on Tuesday...!!!

Oh boy, look what Nicole has started!!!!

:)

EJL said...

you know she's naughty by nature!!!

What does that mean anyway, Naughty by Nature? Is Nature Naughty? Or just primal????

Nicole said...

naughtiness for me, just comes natural EL. I frankly just can't help it. It's the way I look at life. I do really try to sometimes refrain, esp. when it is at inappropriate times, but sometimes, I can't control myself.

Hey...glad to hear about Tuesday!!
Saturday nights seem to be the NIGHTs here lately!! We've gone out EVERY Sat for about 6 weeks now, and get home anywhere between 2-5 am and then have a little Sunday morning delight as well, so I guess technically, Sundays have been working out pretty good!!!

I thought that was some rap/hip-hop group from the '90s.

Nicole said...

ps. that duck liver belongs on my thread awhile back on waiter there's a fly in my soup, under our list of NASTY foods. YUCK EL!!!

oh yeah, RWA, I don't know if you noticed or not, but you totally cracked up one of the commenters with your story about the cockroach!!!

Nicole said...

Nope, RWA, I don't know what your talking about.
An older, man that I comment alot on his blog, told me that I am the naughtiest delight he has ever encountered, and I told him that it is just my nature to be that way and that is where it comes from.

So, I am definitely not being a poser of some hiphoppers!!!

EJL said...

I think it was RWA... Maybe Nic is related!

Wow..you get to stay out that late. Must be nice! I don't think my eyes can even stay open past 11...
I used to pull all nighters and eat cold spagetti in the morning on my way to some theory class..and quite possible still drunk. I don't remember much from those days but have the pics to prove I was there and then some!

Nicole said...

well, my kids are also 14 and 12 so THAT makes a big diff. and then on Sundays, we usually aren't doing much, I usually get up by 9:00, sometimes we go for brunch with our friends at this casino and then we get the kids from my moms at noon. Usually I then have my mom and Aunt over for supper as a thank you.

although, I certainly did not go for brunch a couple Sundays ago after that Southern Comfort business.
El, I have sooo much partying to do this weekend, there isn't enough of me to go around!!!
2 surprise birthday parties, a pass for the 4 day party at this nightclub in honour of the rolling Stones spending the weekend here, am going to the Stones concert Friday night....etc, etc. I may have to sneak a nap or 2 in this weekend. Thank God Monday's a holiday!!!

You two are KILLING me. Can't you talk about all the sex you're getting in private e-mails or something?????!?!?

I mean, sheesh!!!! Ellie has gotten more in the last TWO DAYS than I have in I can't remember how long!!!!!!

Nicole said...

There ain't nothing wrong with dating the "twins" or the "5 sisters" either RWA!!! LOL

yes, El and I do email each other, El, did you get the carwash one?

That one makes me want some sex right about now......

Anonymous said...

Well, I can honestly say I've never heard either of those - dating the "twins" or the "five sisters."

Those must be Canadian phrases, huh?

Nicole said...

well the twins are if you use both hands, and 5 sisters{fingers} are for one hand.

perhaps it is a Canadian saying...or just something I pulled out of the sick crevices of my guttermind

EJL said...

yes I got the pic of the naked men...thank you. My boss who scans my email thanks you too! (just kidding)

I have heard of the 5 sisters and the twins. Although I am sure that RWA is a sexy beast and just prefers to reserve the intamate time with someone special...right RWA... YOU SEXY BEAST YOU!

Anonymous said...

Good grief, Nicole. How can you post such things on Ellie's blog?!??!?!?

Then, of course, this entire exchange has gone from Ellie's anniversary to sex, so should I really be surprised?

Ellie, I can't believe you've heard phrases like that before. I would expect such from Nicole, but not from you!!!! :)

Yeah, you're right...I "reserve" all my intimate time for someone special. That's it...yeah.

~writes that one down for future use~

Nicole said...

EL!!! well you'll have to sometime give me the home addy.

hell if she does scan them, then she's seen worse from us!!! LOL

Hey, even sexy beasts can use their hands, there is NOTHING wrong with that!!

Infact, I just may have a vibrator named Joaquin, for you know El, when I'm feeling all hysterical and all :)

EJL said...

i HAVE ONE NAMED HUGH AND ONE NAMED CHRISTIAN....OMG TYPING IN CAPS....MUST BE HYSTERICAL....SHIT WHERE ARE THE BATTERIES!!!!

EJL said...

I am sure you have some pet names...lets hear em' ...don't be shy...I have no idea where you live!

Anonymous said...

OK, two questions:

1) WHY do you name your vibrators?

2) WHY did you pick THOSE NAMES???

"Joaquin"..."Hugh"..."Christian"...

PLEASE do not tell me that is for Joaquin Phoenix, Hugh Jackman and Christian Slater!!!!!!!!



Are you asking me if I have "pet names"? For what???????????

Nicole said...

Ellie, I can't believe you've heard phrases like that before. I would expect such from Nicole, but not from you!!!! :)

ALRIGGGGHHHT! Now I am offended! implying that Ellie is some kind of sweet angel and I am the naughty, smutty bad girl, I am taking my trashy mouth along with the trashy bra and undies and me and Joaquin are out of here

EJL said...

Of course Hugh Jackman..but not so lucky for Christian Slater..

He is actually Christian Troy from Nip tuck... also known as Julian McMahon..but Julian sounds girlie.. I can't quite moan.. "OH JULIAN!" on the otherhand.. Christian sounds kinda sacreligous doesn't it... hmmm I might have to think this one over.

There is no answer to the WHY for me...just cuz..

pet names.. come on don't be coy

Nicole said...

Joaquin Phoenix...


MEEEEOWWWWWWW!!!!

I'd do just bout anything for that man.

Oh, to bring you up to speed, one day, YOUR innocent Ellie, looked up vibrators and found out that they were created to use by doctors to help women when they became "hysterical"

Now that you have 'insulted' moi, I am feeling hysterical and like I said, me and Joaquin are out of here!!!!!

EJL said...

What ever do you mean Nicole? I am sweet and innocent...wink wink. I guess we will hear from you when you emerge tomorrow....

Anonymous said...

Wait a minute...so you actually moan/call/scream out these "names" when you are getting yourself "hysterical"?

Wow, I learn something new every day.

I'm still not sure what you are referring to with regard to "pet names," Ellie. You will have to elaborate.

EJL said...

I must admit, no I do not scream out names...that would alert my hubby!

Hugh and Christian are just wishful thinking.

As for the pet names... I will leave it up to our imaginations!

Nicole said...

RWA...you DEFINITELY DON"T get it. We don't get ourselves HYSTERICAL by doing IT...we do IT because we are HYSTERICAL!!!

BIG DIFF!!!!

Nicole said...

Yes, Joaquin is indeed a WISHFUL THINKING too

Anonymous said...

Let me make sure I have this straight.

You don't scream out the names because "hubby" might hear you. So..."hubby" doesn't know when you're hysterical and with "Hugh" and/or "Christian"? Does he even know "Hugh" and/or "Christian" exist?

How am I supposed to answer when you won't be specific about which "pet names" you want to hear about?

EJL said...

I don't think that would be appropriate RWA. Besides...don't you think that would make a man uncomfortable? A fake one, replacing the real one? I don't know about that.

Pet names.. you know Dancing with the twins.. five sisters, spanking the monkey, jerkin the chain.... blah blah..I know you don't have a little man in the boat....sooooo

But we don't have to go into details anymore. I think that my readers are swimming in sexual connotations, may be even drowning!

Anonymous said...

Yeah, I guess that's a good point. That can't be good for the male ego, I suppose.

Oh my...you are just full of "pet names," aren't you? I guess Nicole was right (just kidding!)....

And, I suppose you're right. I guess we should go back to talking about seared duck liver, huh?

EJL said...

It's the best don't ya know! And according to our waitress we better get it now, while it is still legal in the state of Maryland. Apparently, other states don't take to well to ducks being force fed handfuls of food in order to enlarge the ducks liver. Sounds quite painful to me... I won't ever eat it again!

Anonymous said...

It sounds disgusting. I'm not even worried about force-feeding the ducks to enlarge their livers.

I cant' stand liver - period!

Anonymous said...

Happy anniversary! The dinner sounded great! If you can acquire a taste for Foie Gras, it really is quite good.

Anyway, enjoy many years of wonderful, precious days together.
