Nothing like a fight for your anniversary around the dinner table. Why is it when one person has certain expectations and another person lets them down with out even knowing it - it leads to a heated discussion in front of the children AHHHHHHHHHHHH sassa, frassa.
So there you have it. It is kind of like Christmas for adults. The fun is the month leading up to it. But sometimes Christmas day can be a let down if you don't have the right/realistic expectations. I feel the same way about trying to cook a fabulous dinner. There is a lot of prep work, then timing everything to be hot on the table at the correct time. Three things can happen- One you are stuffed already from sampling everything- oops. Two it tastes like crap- ie parsnip mash!!! or Three no one else likes it quite as much as you do and they want to go to Taco Bell.
By the way Outback was ok. I thought my food was a bit dry. Natalie's garlic mashed potatoes looked like Bob from Monsters vs Aliens and tasted like Fish mash. But today is a new day. Thank God! The sun is up. Jesus rose from the grave and I have a new Espreso Machine from William Sonoma. Not bad for 15 years. Let's mark this and see what happens on the 16th year. Round 16 ding
