Rafa and I had a lovely evening at home, watching the snow fall. And fall. And fall. He made me a delicious dinner:

He called this amazingness “cacahuete gai pan.” Cacahuete is peanut in Spanish and gai pan in chicken in Chinese. He served this delicious fusion dish on starfruit with a side of mixed veggies and orange-raisin rice. Check out the beautiful plating! He served his creation with a nice pino grigio that complimented the sweet undertones of the dish. All I can say is… wow. It was delish!

Who needs to go out when you’ve got this at home? (Rhetorical question.) I loved it. This year, more than any other time in my adult life, I just feel so content. It’s hard to describe. God has just blessed me with the peace that comes from knowing that I am in the center of His will for my life. I feel full, happy. I feel complete.

With a gift like that, who could ask for anything else? (Again, rhetorical question.) But wait – there’s more! Rafa got me an iPhone too 🙂
