Flowers For Dinner

This evening my dear sweet husband gave me flowers…and I ate them. He didn’t complain much.

See, we went to this edible flowers restaurant near Mae Rim, Chiang Mai. I knew I’d love the place the moment we arrived. A small tropical rainforest greets us at the entrance, to my left is a menu written on a chalkboard stand in Thai, dim lanterns hang from the rooftop. A pair of shoe prints welcome us at the foot of the steps. We walk inside.

It’s date night for Russ and I. Don’t know why I call it that, we have no real day that we plan to do something special with each other. Force of habit, I presume. Russ ran across this place in Chiang Mai Citylife, a hub for mostly expats and foreigners to find what’s new and happening in the city. This restaurant is one of it’s kind because unlike it’s fellow diner buddies, here, flowers are the main course.

Hey Family,

Glad to see you’re still here! It’s been a long time -- at least it feels that way.

Okay, where to begin? So much has taken place since we last blogged and we’re now about 900 days into this marriage. Can you believe it? We’re still roughing it out together. This time, literally.

We sold all our junk and moved to Southeast Asia!

The goal: To live simple lives in a foreign country with only a week’s worth of clothes, two laptops, limited funds and each other.

We’d love to keep you updated on our progress, so we’ve taken your advice and decided to blog another 100 days!

Join us at our new space at www.ourfirst100days.com

See you there in a few!
