Surprise "French" Picnic

Allow me to gush today, friends. After last night, I can't help myself. Tiho and I celebrated Valentine's day yesterday (the 15th) because I had night class on the 14th.

This is what I arrived home to after work:


An indoor picnic on our bedroom floor, complete with a blanket, candlelight, rose petals, a basket containing a baguette, assorted cheeses, olives, crackers, stuffed mushrooms (my favorite!) and a bottle of wine. Oh, and romantic french background music and a vase of long-stemmed red roses.


I was speechless. And so touched. But then, that's who Tiho is. He just gets it. And me.


I love you, T. Thank you for this romance, today and every day.

    This is so lovely! I would feel like a scene from a romantic movie! Tiho should be teaching men how to treat their girlfriends:-) I'm very happy for you!

    Going from two Social Security checks to one can represent a significant drop in income. So can the loss of a pension benefit, or a cut in the survivor's benefits.TeddyBär
