Day 8-9

Thought I'd add a little... challenge to my home practice.

She sure had a good time.

So did I.

Giggling away as I moved through asanas...

I finally made it off the floor.

I was grateful that G was there to snap these shots.

I know when she's all grown up we'll look back at these pictures and giggle together!

Valentine's Day & Yoga

Monday night was enjoyed with our bestie Danielle, some good wine and oysters.

Oh oysters, how I love thee!

Danielle whipped up a mean blood orange mignonette.

Then, her and nugget snuggled on the floor.

And yes, that is Christopher Walken on her shirt.

Tuesday, I whipped up a batch of cookies for my darling husband who had been requesting cookies for some time.

Recipe from here.

And dinner. Oh the dinner!

 More oysters. 

Why not?

This is the meal that won my heart so many years ago.

G.'s famous homemade Caesar Dressing, Filet au poire with Mushroom Brandy Cream Sauce, and Roasted Beets!

To. Die. For.

It was also Day 1 of my 30 day Yoga Challenge. Oh what a day to start but I did my 10 minutes.

Admittedly, my mind was more on shucking those oysters and cracking some champagne than on sun salutations.

Today, I will also be practicing at home but will definitely be getting my head in the game.

Two more weeks until my fast begins so this will surely be the last decedent meal for a while.

It was a special occasion after all!
