Lovely night...

[cyan_blue]

Last night emmett_the_sane and I went out on a date night. We went first to La Fondue, and indulged in 2 cheese courses, a tempura course, and a chocolate orange dessert course - many purrs for the senses.

This was even more special because it was the first time that we were back at La Fondue in several months. Emmett was having some adverse reactions to both chocolate and wine for a while, and he has been slowly easing both back into his menu after half a year's abstinence. So we'd avoided going to La Fondue until he could handle both - and I'm happy to say that it looks like he can. Yay! I'd missed that place, and it is wonderful to be able to share the site of our first formal date together again.

We had some really good reconnect time there, full of deep talks and loving kisses between nibbles of delicacy.

Afterwards we went to a surprisingly lovely hotel near where he works - surprisingly because it has so much beauty and so many amenities for what is essentially a Motel 6 price. My favorite parts were the flower-lavished villa-style walkways, the big comfy bed, and the jacuzzi tub, which we had a beautiful soak in this morning before we headed off to work.

Today is a lightly-scheduled one for me workwise, so I get to just be languid now and luxuriate in the happy vibes and memories of it all. Thanks for a beautiful date, cher... and here's looking forward to many more.

Share the hotel info?

We've been talking about places to do "local getaway" kinda stuff, but the hotel price for anything decent has usually been off-putting.

If you wouldn't mind sharing the hotel info...I think I could use a jacuzzi soak before work some morning soon!

How *wonderful*! I am utterly full of happy warm fuzzies for you both! There is something utterly magical about having intense reconnect time with your partner. I am looking forward to something similar when Peter (my "closest thing to a primary") comes back from Europe in 12 days.

Lessee... great sex, breakfast and a fabulous date all in the last few days. Go you!

Sounds like a wonderful time had. My kiddo's birthday gift from his grandparents a number of years running has been dinner at that grand and silly place!

That pause and reflect is a blessing though isn't it? I was gifted with a two night stay out in Halfmoon Bay as a wedding treasure by my dear ex-laws (they will also be hosting the child at their place in LaLaLand as part of the gift). There is not time or money for a real honeymoon, so when I am somewhat more recovered from all this time under the knife I hope to take time and breath the sea at and do the same.

Thank you for sharing your goodnesses with us.

Yay!

I'm glad emmett_the_sane can have chocolate and wine again. I'm also glad that this means you two can share La Fondue again. La Fondue is absolutely wonderful.
