What a fine tribute to your marriage. Happy anniversary. Glad you found the right someone. Truly believe you're right about the party. A good party is my plan for my departure also.

Thanks, Sandy! Yes, I would like to have a big pre-funeral party. No sense in everyone showing up when you’re already dead and can’t enjoy it!

First and foremost: happy anniversary!!!

Second: OMG, a kitchen couch is perfect. We have a sitting area that spills into the kitchen and yes it has a couch but I have never thought of it as essential to the kitchen or to the many talks that take place in it. It shall be rechristened today.

I smiled in recognition when you said you and your husband did not run out of things to talk about (and that debate about the morality of the artist is one that happens weekly in our kitchen as my mate's opinions of the famous worsen). This ability to talk about anything or nothing is one of the things I cherish most about my mate and my marriage.

Many happy returns of the day to you!

Thanks so much! The kitchen couch is essential in our household. If you accept that the kitchen is the center of the house, which it is, you might as well have a comfortable place to sit while you’re there.

"You know you’ve found the right person when you feel freer than you did before you met them." Breathtaking. And thank you for the mention, Robyn.
