another culinary adventure. and v-day

i surprised rylan with a trip to chipotle for valentines day! anyone who knows rylan, knows that its a huge deal. the closest one is in jacksonville, fl which is about 2.5 hours south of us. i didn't tell him where we were going, i just plugged it into the GPS and away we went. as the address popped up, his only response was "the last place i would've ever guessed is jacksonville".  he was pleasantly surprised, and very well fed. that made it so much easier to drag him to j.crew (hey, it's my valentines day too!) the rest of jax was kind of a bust, but at least we ate like royalty! 

he bought me mama mia. his only remark was "nothing says i love you like buying you a movie i hate". ain't he romantic?! i, on the other hand, bought him a kevin smith dvd and an awesome shirt from threadless with movie spoilers on it. but i didn't have a smart ass comment to go along with it.

i made chicken wrapped in bacon. the way into his heart is to wrap food in bacon. words cannot express how totally delicious it was. and theres this cheese sauce to go with it. outstanding! and i made another gooey butter cake. i've determined that i can make anything as long as all i have to do is mix stuff and then throw it in the oven.
