Song of the Day: Glory of Love by Big Bill Broonzy

Once upon a time, Fitz and I decided to be boyfriend and girlfriend. And as boyfriends and girlfriends often do, we decided to watch a movie together one evening. That movie was Intolerable Cruelty. It remains to this day one of our favorite movies, and when we can't quite figure out what to watch, it's usually the first movie that's suggested (unless we haven't seen Batman in a while). If you've never seen it, we highly recommend it. Here's a short clip:


We watched it last Saturday night, and because we're now an old married couple, we couldn't stay up to finish it, so we watched the last half yesterday. Again, if you haven't seen it, rent it today. Or Netflix it. Or whatever it is you young people do these days.


Check out our awesome pumpkin designs.
On a side note, this, I believe, is our first picture taken together, ever and as bf/gf. It was our first Halloween together (see the pumpkins?), and it was also the first time Fitz met my parents and my brother Allen, also in the picture. Mom knew Fitz was a keeper when he helped give out candy to the kids ringing our doorbell. I knew he was a keeper because he wore an orange shirt. He takes Halloween very seriously, which is a must for a good and proper husband. I think we had already watched Intolerable Cruelty by the time Halloween rolled around. 

Last night we made Pioneer Woman's Chicken Spaghetti. We have a ton leftover, which is not a bad thing. In fact, it's a glorious truth because it means we don't have to cook again for dinner tonight. It's really good, and it definitely will make the fall/winter rotation, joining other winners like Vegetable Soup and Chili. It's just good comfort food that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy and cheesy inside. In fact, all this talk about pumpkins and candy and cheese is making me very excited about the fall quickly approaching...
