Peter and I ventured into the kitchen to make fresh pasta a few times. In light of our successful attempts, we plan to expand our journey. We hope to make date nights even more fun using these ravioli cutters. The set of 5 includes a ravioli wheel cutter, two pasta presses, a round pasta cutter, and a dumpling tool.

I enjoy the moisturizing body wash from Caress. All year long, I struggle with dry skin; however, when I include this body wash line in my daily routine, I feel confident that my skin is nourished. This item in bulk ensures access whenever I require a burst of moisture.
Consider adding this body wash as you plan your bathing care needs.

Highlighting birthdays reaches new levels with me each year. In March, Aunt Yvonne celebrated her birthday in spirit since she transitioned to her next life. My stepdad, Chris, dined with us at one of his favorite steakhouses. My mother-in-law, Susan, enjoyed her time with us at lunch and with a spectacular comedy show. I hope all savored their special days.
To begin, I was born in the late 70s, and my formative years were crafted from the excitement and joy of the 80s and launched me into the 90s and 00s with curiosity and an understanding to appreciate your presence. My husband and I grew up in the same timeframe and commemorated similar things, but for different reasons. We enjoy finding similarities and nuances that shape our outlook and grow closer. As we dive deeper into a marital relationship, finding activities to spark conversation and memories is a highlight. In March, we took our date nights/days to the NC Symphony, the Museum of Art, the Planetarium, the city of Old Salem, and a new location, the Lands Between.
The goal of this post is to show a snapshot of nostalgia. I intend to give further insight into the experiences at a later date.
I have discussed the music of the 80s in other blogs and will bring it up many more times. Buckle up! All kidding aside, a few groups hold unique places in Peter, and I’s a collective being. Genesis is one such band. The two of us secured tickets to Phil Collins’s “Last Domino” tour, which was fantastic. Check out this blog link (Last Domino) for a refreshed look.
We discovered that the NC Symphony chose Phil Collins and Genesis to honor as part of their tribute series, and yes, Peter and I attended proudly. The night was beautiful and exciting.

Art of Bloom 2023
The Museum of Art brought The Art of Bloom to life again. To see the art piece reinterpreted through a floral arrangement spoke to my soul. To see the last time we experienced this exhibit, check this blog.
This year’s exhibit brought a wonderful delight to see the fantastic local artist shine from inspiration!
Morehead Planetarium and Science Center
“Would you like to swing on a star?” plays lightly as I recall our trip to the Planetarium. While enjoying a beautiful Sunday afternoon, Peter and I met with his mom and her companion to embrace the stars. Afterward, we conversed and walked around the UNC-Chapel Hill campus, then finally, a quiet bit to eat. I truly love how we date.
Old Salem, North Carolina
The city of Old Salem and the alluring aroma of bread from a 4th-grade field trip beckoned me to return. Peter and I took a day’s drive to the town and enjoyed the bakery’s sights and smells and the old-world scene! To see the city with adult eyes brought me such joy!
Pi Day
While in grade school, I gravitated toward the beauty of mathematics and sciences. On March 14th, we donned our attire to celebrate the mathematical function and a delicious slice of pie!
Elden Ring
After a year of dedicated video gaming research, I claimed an achievement as I completed the Journey 1 of the Elden Ring. My captivation for this video game extends to my bookshelf and wall decor. After purchasing a strategy guidebook, I found a bonus item that thrilled me. The publisher included a map of the world which I framed and placed next to an academic marker on our walls – a friendly reminder of what I can accomplish. The nostalgic feel and date night relevance ties peters love of computers, my imagination to explore the depths of a world in video game form, and the ability to share in each other’s failures and triumphs as we advanced in the game. Being a Tarnished explorer bares an honor; I did not expect.
Women hold power and sway over many aspects of life. Taking a moment to appreciate friends and family that illuminate the power of the Goddess power within remains imperative as we as a society grow and define ourselves. The images here only show a small fraction of the beautiful women that inspire me daily.
Thank you, Ladies.
