Happy Anniversary: The Best is Yet to Come

I can't believe it's already been a year since I married the love of my life!

Man, time sure flies...fast!

At the end of our wedding day I remember saying to my husband,

that it had been the best day of my life.

It truly had, and he agreed! 

I can't say the last year has been easy,

but having him by my side has made life easier.

May 21, 2011 was the best day of my life,

but it just keeps getting better!

I love you MORE than I ever thought possible Travis Wesley Agustin!!!

Happy Anniversary!

Date night: Cinco de Mayo

Our cinco de mayo celebrations were low key,

but we enjoyed every bit of them! 

We took the pups to the beach to watch the sun set,

muy romantico ;-) 

 Then celebrated with yummy food and tasty drinks! 

And the celebration continued with more margaritas and shots when we got home!

 

It was a pleasant evening spent with great company!

International Grilled Cheese Day

I'm not sure if you're aware, but last Thursday was International Grilled Cheese Day!!!

I've talked about my love for cheese before,

so you can imagine my excitement when my husband told me what day it was!

In true fat kid fashion we didn't settle for your ordinary grilled cheese,

and we couldn't make just one kind either.

We started with the best grilled cheese, (yep that's the title of the recipe).

I don't know that it's the best I've had but it was REALLY good!

Then we did a couple variations of your typical grilled cheese,

one with cheddar and spicy pickles,

and the other with cheddar, spicy pickles, and salami.

Top: cheddar w/spicy pickles, Bottom: best grilled cheese

To keep with the cheese theme,

we also made homemade mac n cheese.

Our cheese fest was amazing,

can't wait for the next one!

***Our tweaks***

For the Grilled cheese:

We used grated cheese on all our sandwiches (it gets gooey-er!)

Once the bread was buttered we poked holes through each slice so the cheese could ooze out

We sprinkled grated parmesan cheese on the outside of the bread as it was grilling



For the mac n cheese:

We omitted the eggs

Used non-fat milk instead of whole

Once the noodles we cooked/drained we mixed everything together in the pot, transferred to a baking dish and baked for 25 minutes @ 350

After ten minutes of baking we added panko break crumb topping (next time I'll put the panko on at the beginning)
