One Month!

One month and I go from a miss to a misses. 

This mister will give me the best present ever...

his last name! 

 I'm not entirely sure how I got so lucky. 

SHUT. UP.

Today was arguably one of the best days of my life. 

It wasn't the 10,000 mile walk in the rain with a dog and boyfriend to see a Temple ground breaking that made it awesome. Although, that was pretty cool. Or, I imagine it was. We left before the program even started. It was 45* and rainy. I'm a wimp. Don't judge :p

It wasn't the amazing car ride through Provo canyon, Midway, and Heber. Although the clouds touching the tips of the mountains were pretty cool. See for yourself: 

Definition of 'puppy dog eyes' right there. He doesn't look pleased. He was loving the car, don't let those eyes fool you. 

The part that made my day so amazing? 

This: 

and this:

that's right! WE'RE ENGAGED!!!!! 

(I promise I'm working on the entire proposal story right now.) 

How to prepare a husband

A good many husbands are utterly spoiled by mismanagement. 

Some women go about as it their husbands were balloons, and blow them up. 

Others keep them constantly in hot water. 

Others let them freeze by indifference and carelessness. 

Some keep them in a stew by irritating ways and words. 

Others roast them. 

Some keep them in a pickle all their lives.
It cannot be supposed that any husband will be tender and good if managed this way. 

But they are really delicious when properly treated. 

In selecting your husband, do not go to the market for him. 

As the best are always brought to your door. 

It is far better to have none, unless you learn to govern him. 

See that the linen in which you wrap him in is properly washed and ironed. 

With the required numbers of buttons and strings tightly sewed on. 

Since they are crabs and oysters, you must cool them alive.

If he sputters and fusses, do not be anxious, some husbands do this until they are done. 

Add a little sugar in the form of kisses. 

But no vinegar or pepper whatever. 

A little spice improves them, but it must be used with judgement. 

Stir him gently once in a while, lest he adhere tot he kettle and become useless. 

You will not fail to know when he is done. 

If this treatment is closely followed, you will find him all that is desirable.
And do not be careless and keep him in too cool a place. 

So, I found that in a old cookbook of my grandma's tonight. It's adorable and I just had to share. :)
