assault and battery

Raf and I were at the check out in a store we frequent and I was feeling a bit affectionate , so I cozied up to him and gave him a kiss of the cheek (I know you’re thinking, WHAT?!  At the check out?!  But I assure you, it was totally PG).  This was his response:

R: Don’t attack me!

L: *Snuggling up to him and hugging his arm*

R: This is a mild assault!

L: This is a mild assault?!?

R: Yes, and battery.

On an unrelated note, I apologize (to anyone out there who may still read this blog) that we have been SO terrible about updating it.  We have been fairly swamped lately with graduate school so I ask that you please be patient with us.   In return we’ll try and step it up.

Here is a quick run down of what we have been up to since October:

October:

In keeping with our homemade Halloween costume tradition…We were Pacman and Blinky for Halloween:

November:

1. We spent Thanksgiving at my parent’s place and there were about 30 people!  It was amazing and SO yummy.

2. Rafaan turned 27 on Thanksgiving day and as per his request I made him sticky date pudding, which was  TO DIE FOR if I do say so myself!  http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/Sticky-Date-Pudding-with-Toffee-Sauce-15100

3.  I threw Rafaan and my younger brother Evan (who turned 24) a DOUBLE BIRTHDAY BASH LASER TAG EXTRAVAGANZA, which was epic!  We first went and got Korean BBQ at Honey Pig, which was beyond delicious and then we split up into two teams and had an all out laser tag war.

December:

Rafaan and I celebrated our 3 year wedding anniversary!  He took me to a cute little French restaurant and gave me these:

Which he explained by saying: “three petals for three years”  SO sweet!

January:

Rafaan joined forces with my cousin and his BFF, Dana and threw me the best surprise birthday party EVER!  Dana and her husband Mike (my BFF) drove down from NJ and surprised me for the weekend.  They took me to dinner where we were joined by my parents, Jared (my older brother) and  Sholeh.  After dinner I had suggested that we go play games at our friend’s house, so off we went.  Well when we walked in there was our good friend Kent singing one of the songs that we had sung at our wedding surrounded by balloons and candles, I was speechless and in total shock, upon entering the room about 20 friends yelled SURPRISE from the loft-balcony that over looks their living room.  I felt so incredibly loved and grateful to have so many amazing people in my life.

February:

You’re all caught up now!
