The Flavors of Tippy

 This was my first time ever going to Taste of Tippacanoe,

and I loved it.

Curt and I had sushi, smoked brisket, indian food, carmels, and ice cream.

We had happy tummies.

I didn't realize there were so many restaurants in Lafayette!

There were food venders all the from downtown up until the skate rink,

and it was a beautiful night. 

And to top it off,

there were fireworks!

These fireworks were pretty dang good,

and for a solid 15 minutes.

The entire time fireworks were going off left and right,

and then the finale was HUGE and super loud. 

It got me excited for the Fourth of July...which is comin up!

We finally set a date, for a date. It's kind of difficult to put a night aside as a date night. Because one, when you are married your life is ALWAYS a date. Two, we don't have many nights to spare. Most are filled with volleyball, homework, basketball, church, work, or studying. That doesn't leave much time for us. So, we decided to just do it-forget about everything else. I was in charge. I love being in charge.

This was the plan.

First make dinner. What is more romantic that Beef Fry Ri'. It was almost as good as Rice Cafe. Almost. We sliced up the meat, seasoned it appropriately, cooked it in our wok quickly, and fried up some rice and veggies. My stomach was so happy.

Next. We received a lovely frame, which can hold up to seven pictures, for our wedding. My goal was to fill this frame with pieces of our artwork. We had three categories: Portraits of each other, wildlife, and music. I made a time limit of 15-20 minutes. We could use anything from pencil to charcoal, paint to chalk to magazines. We definitely got creative.
