Coffee Date With My Love...

Dec 13, 2012

When the weather turns cold & wintery, Martin and I love sneaking out for little mid-week coffee dates: we love getting bundled up in the coziest of sweaters, taking in all the bits of Christmas, ordering one too many cookies, reading the paper... and spending the afternoon people watching. And in my case, taking lots of photos. ;) It was the loveliest of afternoons with my love, and reminded me just how important it is to carve out time for one another. I can't wait to do it again!

  2. Aww, I love coffee dates. I kind of wish I lived in/close to a more downtown-y setting though, since the only coffee places nearby are Starbucks and Dunkin' and I feel like those are just so busy and loud all the time that they take away from the moment.
    Lovely photos though! And thanks for visiting our blog :)

  20. Adorable post! Side note - I love that you don't have your rings stuck together. I don't either, and people always ask me why and think it's weird. But I think the rings stay so pretty and delicate on their own, and you can wear just your wedding ring if you want. Anyway, just noticed that, and your rings are beautiful :)

  21. what a darling little coffee shop, it's got a neighborhood vibe and sparkly deer was an immediate attention grabber!! with a certain sense of drama going on downtown while people hustle and bustle along the city streets i'd really enjoy time tucked away in a nook like this. looks so warm and cozy :) 100% yes to carving out that time together, sooooo importanto! glad you 2 (+ Scout!) got the goodness going on! happy new week V, thinking of you and hoping the holidays really seal the heal so your health maintains a solid stance. xo ♥
