You 're the One for Me!
There I was -
One minute getting to know you,
enjoying you and wondering
where it would all lead...
and the next,
thinking about you all the time,
Knowing that I can never, ever
wanted to be without you!
I guess that's the way life is.
You're going along doing your everyday things,
and out of the blue,
life gives you this wonderful present,
a present you had no idea
how much you wanted.
That's what you are to me, you know,
.....A PRECIOUS GIFT....
~ (author is Unknown) but quoted by me to S in a letter for February 2006 V'day :)
5 years and 2 months - We (me & S) have long been 'committed' to each other and all this time, he has been both my strength and weakness. I truly cherish each and every moment spent with him and we have definitely grown together all these years. I can only wish and hope for better days for many more years to come! :).
...and the biggest news of all - Yes! We are getting married this April :) & As you all know, the biggest advantage of marrying a food-blogger - you get to eat yummy food while you-know-who does the dishes!.. S - Are you listening! ;)
Wishing you all a very Happy Valentine's Day
and today's recipe is one his favorites - 'Breakfast Potatoes with Fried Eggs'..Enjoy!
[Edited on Feb 16th]: While She would be my sister-in-law, She will be my neighbor. (or atleast there is very high chance we both living nearby and more frequently meeting in person & chattering away to glory! I am so excited! :)
