Artichokes

With Warren being away most of last week for a wedding in South Africa, I stocked up the fridge with edible goodies I could eat that would require little no cooking, cleaning or preparation. Ready made soups, carrots, little pots of mixed olives and sun-dried tomatoes and such. You know what I'm talking about: hunter-gather food. So when he returned, I had plenty of left over goods to try pawn off on him.

 

But why don't you want my artichoke Warren? It's delicious.

I was not impressed.

I tried again later when we were on the couch:

 

WAHAHAHAHA.

Arty. choke. 

hahahahaha

what a FUNNY CHOKE!

hahaha
WAHAHAHAA

LOL. ROFL,  HILAR.

wahahaha.

 

Ah sigh, it's good to have the man back in my life.
I love having someone to share my punny chokes with.

I woke up early this morning for yoga and -

The Warr: Happy 11 months Married!
Me: WOW! Is it 11 months married today?! WOW!! Can't believe WE SURVIVED!
Warr: Yeah. Geez. But one more day and that's me - done.

So from tomorrow, it looks like I'll be back on the market.

just kidding, 

Happy 11 months married wonderful husband!

One more month until.... PAPER.

LOVE BITES

If you follow indieBerries you may know that I recently started a blog series titled indieBusiness Bites - with little nuggets of business/bloggy type info appearing every Tuesday - (you can search back in the series here.) I have decided to alternate this with a new series titled "Love Bites" - mainly because I have a lot of lovely things to share about our little husband/wife life and our little love nest and also to keep Tuesdays interesting for me!

So to sum up - every Tuesday on indieBerries you will either find a "Business Bites" post or a "Love Bites" post. Today is the latter!

The other day, husband did something lovely for me. It was a few weeks ago, so I can't remember exactly what it was - it may have been that time I was feeling really down-in-the-dumps so had booked myself a facial only to realise that he had called ahead to pay for it. Or it could have been that time he brought home flowers for no reason. Or perhaps it was one of his motivational pep talks that he sometimes gives me about how awesome I am, that he thinks I'm not paying attention to, but I really really am. Anyway - I was headed out to book club that particular evening and felt a little overwhelmed with love so decided to write him a MASSIVE message which I left all over the lounge floor for him to find when he got home (bearing in mind, each one of these is at least an A4 sheet of paper):

{LOVE}

     

(yep - I moved out the table and chairs and everything)

It was well received.

PS. Dear Nature conservationists and hippies in general - this message was recycled so that NO trees were harmed in the making of this love note. Every single page has been repurposed into a handy clipboard style scrap book, which is next to my desk and used for mocking up client graphics/invitations/stationery etc that I'm working on and other random "telephone style" notes.


(Retro "clipboards" = indieBerries good at recycling. Stain on thumb left over from NYE: indieBerries not so good at showering).

So anything lovely that you've done to surprise your lovely lately?
