On the first of the month, my partner of nine years and I got engaged!
Naturally, we got engaged over a meal. Well, actually, the meal was mid-prep: turkey BLTs and organic all natural french fries. (see previous post about my love of french fries!!)
Here's how it went down. I was in the kitchen, post-run, in my stretchy pants and t-shirt. I was cutting a tomato for the BLT's when my partner came in and was looking at me funny. I pressed him as to why he was looking at me like that and next thing you know, he's asking me to be his wife.
Honestly, at first I didn't believe him. I thought he was kidding. Then I thought he was serious but had to make him affirm that yes, in fact, he was asking me to be his wife!
To make a long story short, I said yes! We laughed! We cried! We realized both the turkey bacon and the fries were burnt, so we quickly took out the smoke detectors and remade the meal while we called our family and friends to announce the good news!
Then we ate turkey BLT's and fries. The happiest, most delicious turkey BLT and fries I'll ever eat.
