Barclay and Ali Martin

One year.ย โ™กย  I feel like my heart is still learning how on earth to take in to this goodness that I now wake up to each day.

That heโ€™s here now.

That heโ€™s my best friend, my family, my home now.

That heโ€™s the one I get to host dinner parties, plan the next trip, fold laundry, crush on in Spanish class, binge every episode of โ€œArrested Developmentโ€ for the third time, do yoga on the living room floor while the dogs crawl all over us, eat the thousandth round of chips and salsa, dream big dreams, make mistakes, experience forgiveness, and live with in freaking Barcelona (!!!) now.

That heโ€™s the one I love, and Iโ€™m the one he loves now.

That itโ€™s already been a year now. Amazing.

    I LOVE your love of life and each other! :-) I just discovered your corner of the internet after clicking on a recipe in Pinterest. I feel the same about my amazing husband and our life we’re so fortunate to share together AND our puppies, plus 2 cats. ;-) Thank you so much for sharing! I’m excited to try so many of your recipes while listening to music on our mini bose and thinking about what to bring on our next travel adventure. BTW, we were in Barcelona for our honeymoon in 2017…beautiful city and yummy paella! So happy to have discovered you here, so much more than recipes! Congratulations to you! Felicidades!
