Sometimes couples need to be selfish

I love preparing snacks and cocktails that will bring a smile to my hubby’s face when he walks in the door. Soft music playing in the background, a comfy, yet cute outfit, crackling fire or  candle light, depending on the season.

It’s evenings like this that we choose to be selfish and forget about work, politics, world peace, and yes, event the kiddos.

These are the nights where Michael and I recharge and enjoy each other.

On this particular evening, we snacked on fried cheese balls and old fashions

and enjoyed a creative game of chess

…. There was no loser 😉
