two memories from matt's 34th birthday.
1. So I was going to make Matt's favorite frosting. It's a recipe his mom gave me that involves beating egg whites over a double broiler. I don't have a duble broiler so every time I make this frosting I rubberband the handles of two pots together and make a horrible excuse for one. Well into the ordeal I realized that the kids must have stolen the egg beaters last time I made a sweet.
So I ended up standing on the stove with a wire whisk to get a good angle, while holding my makeshift double broiler together. That's how crazy I am about Matthew.
What resulted from my acrobatic cooking was... something... definitely not frosting. I put the goo in the freezer and it never froze solid, like the insides of a gel-pack. Could I market this stuff?
2. On one of our first dates, 9 years ago, we went artistic-photographing in the downtown of Salem, Oregon. Our adventure brought us to the parking structure pictured below where we took some pretty sweet night shots {that I can't find for-the-life-of-me}. Just last year Matthew took a job in the building attached to this lot.
We never could have guessed then that we were standing in the path of our future.
TMI warning. For his birthday date we parked here and did a lot of giggling as we hoped that nobody came near our car.
I never want to forget all the good we have together.
Oh, I love him.
