Two weeks ago, the hubster and I celebrated our one year anniversary (of marriage that is). We were blessed with a beautiful day that we put to use by taking a sail on the Coaster II around the harbor. The day was further on our side when we lucked out by being the only two people for that afternoon's sail. Captain Nico, of the Coaster II, is a calm and soft spoken man, and he made us feel right at home on the boat. We were able to, and actually encouraged to, move about and enjoy the boat during the sail. We also packed a little lunch and snack to enjoy, as we were out on the water for two hours. It was a treat to be able to see the city from a view we don't typically get to see, learn the history of the boat, and watch the crew (Nico, his son, and another young guy). Mostly, it was great to share a new experience for our one year anniversary.
After our sail, we stuffed our faces at Elizabeth's Chop House (um...YUM), and then headed home to stuff our faces even more with an anniversary cake courtesy of Joe's Cakes. Joe is an amazing local cake baker/designer, and who we tried to book for our wedding to no avail. In passing, we mentioned this to Joe at a recent wedding and as a consolation prize (so to speak) he gifted us an anniversary cake!! AMAZING (if you have had his cakes, you obviously agree). No worries, we still planned on eating our freezer burned wedding cake in true anniversary tradition. We treated ourselves to Joe's cake on Saturday (the day of our sail and dinner), and ate our wedding cake on Sunday (our true anniversary). I won't lie, I feel guilty saying this... but our year old cake was amazing (as was Joe's, but I don't need to reiterate that for most).
What an amazing weekend! Beautiful weather, a sail, wonderful dinner, TWO cakes, but most importantly time with the hubbs and a toast to many more years to come. Did I mention TWO cakes? ;)
