My husband and I celebrated 4 years of marriage last week, so this past weekend we splurged a bit to celebrate. We have been very good about not eating out much lately, so we felt it was ok if we spoiled ourselves this one weekend. We went to a fancy steak and seafood restaurant and saw Wicked, the musical. The dinner was delicious — I had fillet mignon and a fabulous martini composed of amaretto, vanilla vodka and pineapple juice. Wicked was incredible — those ladies can SING!
Now don’t worry folks, I haven’t abandoned all financial sense for the sake of indulgence! Since tickets to the musical were rather expensive, C and I made a pact not to get each other gifts this year — instead, the tickets were a joint gift to each other. Also, since we knew it was going to be a pricey meal, we made sure to select a restaurant where we could get 4% back for my student loan through Upromise. All in all it was a wonderful night, and I look forward to many more happy anniversaries with my husband.
