Happy Anniversary to Us!!

Today was our 1st Anniversary! We had a wonderful day and I can't believe it's been a year already. This year was really great, so much has happened. We're so blessed for everything that we have and for how wonderful our first year has been.


Tonight we ate dinner at Fearrington House Restaurant south of Chapel Hill, NC. It was really amazing.

Seared Foie Gras with Celery Root Fondant & Red Wine Pickled Apples, Hazelnut, Truffle, Pearl Onion &
Roasted Chicken Breast with Potato Pave and Butter Poached Shrimp, Dried Grapes, Ramps, Shitake

Kevin had: 
Yukon Potato Soup with Smoked Scrod and Quail Egg, Sherry, Peas, Leek, Mustard
Seared Monkfish with Aged Acquerello Risotto Cured Iberico Pork, Fava Beans, Red Pepper, Basil &

We came home for a glass of champagne from the champagne house we visited on our honeymoon and a slice of our anniversary cake from Sweet Memories.  We ate a little bit of the actual top tier of our wedding cake earlier in the day. It was really good, and surprisingly tasty and fresh for having been frozen for a year.

Our anniversary treats... Cake and champagne!!

YUM!
The real top tier of our wedding cake... 1 year later! Weird looking, but delicious! 
Thanks to all of our family and friends for wishing us well on our anniversary. We love you all! :)
