Friday Favorites: Food

Kelli and I love to eat out. For the most part, we love simple things. Nothing too wild and crazy. So, this Friday, our favorite things to eat in the Cedar Valley:

Jordan's Favorites:
  1. Chicken Burrito at Pablo's (with rice and no beans)
  2. Chicken of New Orleans at Mulligans (sadly, no longer on the menu, but their Californicated Chicken is close)
  3. "The Local" at The Pita Pit (buffalo chicken pita)
  4. Seafood Lasagna at The Brown Bottle
  5. Five Cheese Pizza at The Other Place
Honorable Mention: Buffalo Chicken Wrap at Toads

Kelli's Favorites:
  1. Cheese Cannelloni at The Brown Bottle
  2. Seafood Lasagna at The Brown Bottle
  3. Chicken Salad Croissant at Soho
  4. The Philly at Mulligans (with chicken, not steak)
  5. The Original at Mulligans
Honorable Mention: Oriental Wrap at The Pump Haus

6 Years Ago

Six years ago, Kelli and I were married on a rainy day in Cedar Falls. We chose April because we both like Spring. We love it when the brown grass turns green and we love seeing the muck from Winter wash away in April showers. Coincidentally, it rained on that day six years ago just as it rained today, on our six-year anniversary. The difference was it was warm six years ago. It was freezing today.

Kelli and I celebrated six years by eating out at The Brown Bottle with a bunch of high school prom kids. We both ordered the same thing (seafood lasagna) even though I hate doing that. Our reservations were for 6:30 and we were out of there by 7:30. We shopped a bit at Target and made it home before 9:00. After six years (about 12 years actually), we sure know how to live it up!

Here's to 60 more spent together!
