Celebrating six years of marriage

Alv and I celebrated six years of marriage from our ROM date 8 Aug 2002. Our church wedding anniversary date was more significant to us but it was still an occasion for celebration and good food! I forgot all about it but Alv remembered and booked Barnacles at Sentosa initially. After telling him that the food there is not great, we wanted to go to Buko Nero but it was booked for a private party. So we ended up at Valentino's. We were happy with the choice.

We shared a seafood soup, a parma ham pizza without cheese, a duck ragout penne, and stewed pork ribs - the latter two being the specials of the day. For dessert, we had four! The appetisers and main courses weren't a lot, you know. We had panna cotta, choc cake with rum, white choc sponge cake, and lemon meringue. I particularly enjoyed the soup, pizza, duck penne, panna cotta, and lemon meringue.

But like many married-with-kids couple, we still had to do the more practical stuff after a romantic sumptous dinner - we had to buy groceries for the weekend! After that it was going home to put Ian to bed by 9pm.

It has been a wonderful six years of marriage. It was not all smooth-sailing, being two imperfect, strong-minded individuals and when we faced trials in our lives. But we have a perfect Saviour in the midst of our marriage. And for that we are thankful. With Him, our marriage can only get sweeter and sweeter.
