Enough for 10 boyfriends...


I saw a post for American Airlines WAS to SFO (San Fran baby) and since Mike's never been, I begged him to go with me [next year].  But nooooo, he decided he'd been there tooooo many times and didn't care to visit again. What a miserable problem to have.  So I nagged Mike more.  Somehow we switched roles because this is how the conversation proceeded:

Why won't you goooooo with me?!
Because I need to save more.
But we're already saving! 
Well some people are enough for 10 boyfriends. 

Oh! no! he! didn't!  And because he said that, you get the lovely picture above.

And this leads me to another post of things I want and other fun links....

//A Moment in Time//

Love editorialized couple shoots.
A gorgeous family in Yosemite.
Proposal perfection in snow.
Super puppy!

//Home Sweet Home//

Whiskey barrel style tub.
Country club chic family room.
A perfect living room in which to read in front of a perfect fireplace.
Monograms for everything is completely necessary.

//Fashion//

The perfect conservative, classy wedding gown.
Love this preppy couple.
Riding boots and white pants.
Fur vest and black turtleneck.  Score.

//Happy Links//

Regardless of your stance, this is hilarious.

There's a burrito under there


He looked at me with that are you kidding me? expression. Where are you taking us? He was discomfited by the dilapidated red and white building. I reasoned that anything stamped with the seal of approval by Adam Richmond (Man v. Food) is OK in my book. And hey, it was a change in pace from our Costco routine.  

K and I Diner is home to the "Travis on a silver platter challenge," a 6-lb. burrito engulfed in french fries. Knowing Michael's life long dream of competing in the Nathan's Hot Dog Eating Contest (goals are set high in this relationship), I knew this was the perfect place to eat. 

Although he didn't attempt the challenge, the half Travis was enough to put him down for the remainder of the day. The mountain of fries makes one wonder whether there was a burrito underneath. The food was amazing so much that we ordered takeout on our way to the airport. 

I highly recommend a trip to Albuquerque solely based on food. The green chili pepper is endemic to New Mexico and the taste packs a punch. It adds a dimension of "heat" to almost every dish in the state. If only K and I Diner would move to Virginia...
