Ice Cream, Yous Cream


We got an ice cream maker in the mail last week for a shower gift!!! SO excited to make some soon. We got all the fixins to make coffee ice cream to bring over to S&O's but we didn't realize it would take 6-22 hours to freeze the bucket. Lame. Anyway, we'll be ice cream makin' in no time! Thanks J&C!

Fife

R & I went out to dinner at Fife on Friday night.
When we first moved here it was on our list of places to eat and for some reason we haven't made it there yet. S&O have gone the last 2 years for their anniversary and LOVED it. Can't believe we waited this long.
We ordered an amazing bottle of Rosè to start, which was a great way to end the summer.
We shared a delicious order of Fried Green Tomatoes & a creamy Butter Lettuce Salad.
Then an order of medium rare Albacore over a bed of shredded cucumber, basil and red pepper.
The highlight of the night was our dessert which neither Robb or I would have normally chosen, but the waitress said was fab, so we went for it.
Some sort of peach cake with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce drizzled over top.

If you haven't been to Fife yet, definitely go soon. It's such great food.

Engagment Sesh




We met with our wedding photog a couple weeks ago and did an engagement photo session. The pix came out so great and we're so excited to have HVK shoot our wedding!

Cai Guo-Qiang

R just reminded me of this artist we saw a couple years back at Mass MOCA. We both LOVED his installations and it was great to take a look at some of his work again. Check him out here. I love the Inopportune Stages:

Honestly these photos don't do these installations any justice. Those are actual size cars above, suspended from the ceiling. Same with the tigers, it was surreal.
Thanks R, for the reminder. That was such a great day with you.

We're Back from ACK


Sorry for not posting in a while. We've been on the east coast for vacation and I tried to stay as far away from a computer as possible. I'll give an update on the shower and the rest of the trip soon.
Just wish I was back on that island instead of at my desk...
