Scotchmallows & Champagne

It's been a rough week. First full week of triathlon training. Good but tired. Annual review at work. Good but stressful. My Grandpa has cancer, and is in lots of pain. Sad. Still in shock. Not sure what else to say about that just yet. For those of you who have been through it, you know. But with God there is hope in all things, and I am clinging to that.

After this long week, I was very tired...worn out physically and emotionally. But I came home to a sweet surprise from Wes. He came by work Friday night before I went for my swim to get my key. He picked up some delicious dinner from this hole-in-the-wall Italian place down the street...with fresh pasta to die for. When I got home there was a candlelight dinner waiting. Our first candle light dinner in almost 6 years of dating.

We had a nice dinner and were going to veg out and watch some Alias by the fire then Wes brought out dessert! The best dessert ever! Scotchmallows and champagne ( yes I know I need to get some champagne flutes )!

For those of you who don't know what scotchmallows are, I am very sad for you, but I hope you meet them soon. They are one of my favorite See's candies. A fellow addict keeps them locked up in a box away from her kids because they are so good! She also calls them PMS pills. They work wonders. And Wes bought my a whole box of scotchmallowy goodness!
It was a nice evening. Good food, a good man, and good rest. :)
