Today is our 18th wedding anniversary. I got a good bottle of port for Snuggles. He’s buying me a new wedding band. Mom came up this weekend and we enjoyed a special, homemade meal together to celebrate; she even helped us through a bottle of champagne. That’s fitting as I took Snuggles home to meetContinueContinue reading “Wedding Anniversary”

He said Bell’s or Founder’s (two Michigan breweries) and a total of three six-packs: a stout, a paleContinueContinue reading “Sir…?: A Pick-Up Line Hubby Can Get Behind”
