Valentine's Day on a student budget.We had a nice little spread thanks to our weekly trip to the Saturday market. We picked up some cheeses (the aged goat cheese was our favorite, great w a drizzle of honey), nuts, dried fruit and pickled veggies. The pickler threw in a couple of rolls for free. R chose a beautiful bouquet of roses (our big splurge) and we still had a small bottle of champagne we'd received for Christmas.
Delicious.
After our appetizers we went on our movie date: An Education. (Liked). Not all that hungry we ended up skipping dinner but made sure to end the date at home w some hot cocoa. This week more than one couple had (on separate occasions) mentioned that they often play boardgames together. So, inspired, we decided we'd buy ourselves a boardgame as our valentine gift.
Recommendations welcome!
There are so many boardgames out there... most of my favorites are meant for a larger group of players though. My ultimate favorite is Balderdash (and I think you'd love it). For you and R (just couples playing), I always loved the classics like 'Sorry' and 'The Game of Life'!
