ALPHABET DATES

Last summer I read a book, Alphabet Weekend by Elizabeth Noble . The 'hook' is that Natalie is dumped by her boyfriend, and her childhood best friend Tom (who really fancies her) arranges for them to go on a series of dates according to each letter of the alphabet.

It was a mostly fun read (there was a very uncomfortable affair between friends that was regrettable) and it got me thinking...

Ben and I could spice up our dating life, no, not by an uncomfortable affair between friends, but by planning dates alphabetically.

We decided to take turns, he is starting with 'A', I get 'B' and... well, you get the picture!! We will have to be creative and in some cases even actually make plans for our dates to work. We agreed grocery store dates don't count, so C for Costco, our typical date night, is a no-go!

Our schedules are super busy but we are going to try to do at least two Alphabet Dates a month! I will let you know how it goes! SUPER EXCITED!!
