it's an iPhone life

These two pics are the only photographic evidence of our Thanksgiving. And now I'm realizing that they were just some treats we got two days after Thanksgiving. So they probably don't count but boy, were those treats tasty. 

I was gonna document our Thanksgiving fun times but ultimately decided that nah, I'd rather just focus on one thing: eating. 
So consider the fact that there aren't any pictures, proof that we were too busy eating and being happy. 

Speaking of eating and being happy, 
I surprised Chas earlier this week with a special dinner: 
fresh, baked king salmon burgers. 

All I had to do was splurge a little at the grocery store and get a fresh cut fillet.
When I pulled it out of our fridge later that night, we both felt pretty fancy pants unwrapping it from the butcher's paper. 
Then I just seasoned it with olive oil, salt and pepper, basil, rosemary, and parsely, wrapped it in tin foil and cooked it for about 45 minutes. 
So. Good. 

"Special" was said a lot before, during, and after dinner. 

And last we have something else that's pretty special. 

Chas decided to participate in Movember. 

It was a very special 24 hours indeed.
