the date
saturday gl & i went on a date. *gush, gush* (i know, i know, gag me with a spoon!) we went to the getty museum! oh my goodness, mona, you'd have such a ball taking pictures of their architecture, the fabulous view, and the gardens! you definitely have to go there next time you're in town. sorry, i didn't bring my camera with me, but you all will just have to visit for yourselves!
if you're not on a budget, you also definitely have to try their Restaurant. have you ever had foie gras? oh...my...goodness...*drool* i keep hearing/reading about it when i watch the food network or in the la times food section and i really wanted to know what all the fuss was about. it's supposed to be this dish that you find only at very upscale restaurants, a pure delicacy. and it was. oh, it was soooo wonderful, it melted in your mouth. we savored every single bite of that dish. and that was just the appetizer! he had pork chops and i had duck for our entrees with some wine. our server was absolutely excellent. and we had a fantastic view of the sunset overlooking the ocean. how gorgeous to live in la!

"To try is to risk failure. But risk must be taken because the
greatest hazard of life is to risk nothing. The person who risks
nothing does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid
suffering and sorrow, but he simply cannot learn, feel, change,
grow, live, and love."
~unknown
"It has been my experience that folks who have no vices have very few virtues."
~ Abraham Lincoln
"live a life that others will remember years from now, NOT because it pointed to you but because of how it pointed to the One who made you."
~ Mark Hart, the Bible Geek
"we grow up learning to become self-reliant, but really we need to be God-reliant"
"we could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box"
"never wound hearts that love u, never give them the endless pain, because wounded hearts are like roses that never bloom"
"there comes a time when we have to stop loving someone not because that person has stopped loving us but because we have found out that they'd be happier if we'd let go"
