"Roxie" and her husband celebrated their 10 year wedding anniversary yesterday. They were able to go for a short overnight trip last weekend, which was nice. We felt they deserved a little something extra for staying together for ten years, especially these last ten years when our nation as a whole has gone through so much change. It was a tough ten years as history goes, but they stayed together and are raising their two little children. So, my husband and I offered to take the family out to eat. They opted to have us over to eat at their home. We (my hubby did the spending) went down to the local restaurant, Jasmine's, and ordered every one's favorite dishes to go. Jasmine's Restaurant is a wonderful place. They serve two menus for lunch and dinner. Each menu offers a wide variety of Chinese and Mexican dishes. One of our family favorite places to eat.
It was nice to sit down at the table with our children and grandchildren to have dinner and great conversation. After dinner, "Roxie" offered dessert. She had made her husband's favorite cookie, chocolate-peanut butter-oatmeal no bake. If you haven't had them, you need to get her recipe. Not all no bakes are made the same and these were delicious!
To commemorate their anniversary, we purchased a gift from our own store. She had mentioned how much she liked the vintage Martini case, lettered by Calico, with the martini glasses etched his and hers. After several people looking at it, I bought it before it was gone. They loved it.
So there you have it. What do anniversaries, birthday, and Valentine's Day have in common? We give gifts. Rebel Roxie Rose has added so many new products this last week it would be impossible to tell you about all of them, but we will put some pictures here so you can see some of them.
