My Husband Knows Me Well….

Have I mentioned that I love my husband?
Last night he came home with these just for me.
What else says “Happy Valentine’s Day” like some Easter Candy? But he knows I LOVE Peeps. Especially the yellow ones. I quickly ate three of those bad boys before I remembered to snap a picture.
He also bought groceries and picked out a new recipe to make for dinner. It was yummy and healthy. And involved slicing veggies and baking them. I was beyond impressed. I told him he should make dinner every week….we’ll see about that.
Then the husband went to the gym with me. I usually go by myself, so it was sort of fun to have him on the treadmill next to me. We are romantic like that. Ha!
How was your Valentine’s Day?
