Queenkv’s Brainpickings

Exploring the other side of the rainbow

September 2, 2007

In our eyes are mirror images…

We ended up spreading out our 2 year anniversary over three days. Tasty food, good drinks, Trivia Smackdown and happy memories. We even got a card from Daisy. Mark said one day she asked for the car keys and she came back with our present: a porcelain mug from Starbucks. He said “china” is the traditional gift on the two year anniversary.

Today, I treated Mark to his anniversary gift: video game shopping at Best Buy. The sales clerk carded me for one of his game choices: Gods of War. It got an NC-17 rating and apparently, I don’t look older than 17. It’s kinda nice to look so young at my ripe age of 29….but it’s also a little embarrassing.

Still, Mark’s enjoying his game, Daisy’s curled up and snoring in her blue chair and I’m blogging about the flavors from our anniversary weekend.

Mark made reservations for the New City Cafe in Topeka. I’ve heard good things about its upscale, American fusion cuisine. We started-off with this tasty Lobster Ravioli…Large pillows of pasta stuffed with cheese and lobster.
