This past Saturday, March 6th, marked 1 year since Kurt and I officially began dating. To celebrate we ate at this fancy-schmancy restaurant, El Gaucho. It was awesome! Apparently when Kurt made the reservation they asked if it was for a special occasion and he said "yes, anniversary". Thus we kept on being congratulated- according the the owner (I think that's who he was- he was at least some high up guy making the rounds and asking the guests if their meals were satisfactory) "the first year is the hardest. If you've made it this far then you'll be good". Yes, all these restaurant folk believed we were celebrating our first wedding anniversary. I told Kurt to hide his left hand, as I haven't, in the words of Beyonce, put a ring on it (yet). This slight embarrassment but ultimately funny situation definitely paid off when we got a free desert of our choosing.
Other highlights of the evening: everyone receives a complementary fruit, nut, cheese, and cracker platter after their meal. And we exchanged wedding gifts! I received a lovely necklace with the Eiffel Tower on it, for Paris brought us together and Kurt got a fancy Swiss watch- he served near the watch factory it was made in on his mission.
