Weekly Chicome {10/22 - 11/4}

Because Sandy cut off power and my willingness to write, here is a 2 week roundup: 

{1.} On Thursday 10/25 Ces and I celebrated our two year anniversary :) Our tradition is to get each other a gift, tickets to see something or go somewhere and dinner. This year I decided to make dinner, on the menu: Autumn Chiller, spinach salad with apple cider vinaigrette, balsamic glazed pearl onions, veal meatballs in red wine sauce and for dessert, hot baked nutella and cream cheese sandwiches. I only remembered to take pictures during dessert.

{2.} Pretty roses from Ces 

 

{3.} Roosevelt Island Halloween Festival & Parade: We got to see some of the kids from our soccer team all dressed up, enjoyed a drum line performance and partook in some fun Halloween activities.

 

{4.} First ever Roosevelt Island Pet Fair where miss Chloe took some professional pet photos for free!

{5.} Finally beating our toughest rival on the Roosevelt Island Soccer League, we tied the first match, lost the second match and won our third match of the regular season. Something tells me we will face off again for the final!

{6.} Pre-Sandy brunching, we checked out a new place on the lower east side called Rayuela, Ces and I both ordered the lamb burger with a poached egg on top which was delicious! 

{7.} Finally I cannot be thankful enough because during and after Sandy we were safe, dry and warm.
