The downside to being >8500 miles from your Valentine is that the closest you come to being with them on Valentine's day is Skype. The upside is that you get to celebrate for 37 hours! I don't know how he did it - and from what I know of Cambodian mail, it must have been a Valentine's Day miracle - but a dozen roses arrived for me at the clinic!
What a Valentine!!!
I spread the love by distributing a rose to two little girls in the ward. Although Valentine's Day doesn't seem to be quite as big here, everyone knows what it is. I got a lot of knowing looks and twittering as people saw my beautiful flowers.
I also got a lovely valentine from my new friend, Claire, and candies from Trish.
No Boys Allowed fancy New York Steakhouse Valentine's Day dinner.
Fancy hors d'oeuvres. Bread and garlic: very yummy. Pate: not my thing.
It's a choose-your-own-steak knife kind of establishment.
My dinner! Bourbon flambeed shrimp. Just my style.
It's all about the presentation.
Despite the distance, the best Valentine's Day to date. Can't wait to celebrate in person when I get back. Love to all my friends and family!
What a Valentine! And a 37 hour standard celebration. Nice.
ReplyDeleteHowwwww did he (do it) get you those flowers?? Very cool. Girls' dinner looks fun too. Sounds like you has a merry one!
ReplyDeleteLooks pretty tasty. It's no pasta (two types because I didn't have enough of either one) with sauce and mozzarella (out of Parmesan), but still good.
