5 minutes from now, Alyson and I will have been married for one year! It's a nutty thought, and yet quite a lot has happened in the past year. We decided that to celebrate we would go somewhere new for dinner, and the "Petit Paris" in the Grassmarket part of Edinburgh got the pick. It was great food for a very reasonable price, and nice to have some French cuisine again. Everyone in the restaurant, that I could tell, was in fact French. We have quite a number of French students come through Edinburgh each year, so presumably that fuels their workforce. It is definitely a restaurant we would consider taking guests to visit.
As we discussed highlights of our 1st year Paris was definitely near the top of the list. We thoroughly enjoyed that trip, and hope to take more like it this year (circumstances willing). Barcelona has been one possibility, and I'm definitely keen on doing something substantial for my graduation. We have also been lucky to take 2 trips back to the States, as well as a couple of other brief trips elsewhere in Scotland. I think over this next year it will be a priority to see more of Scotland, and add to our own personal guidebook for our visitors.
This particular location will certainly feature (and just happened to be on our walk back to the car). How many of you can say you have a castle at the centre of your city? (No the Salt Lake Temple doesn't count).
This "Oreo cookie bash" was our dessert from Peckhams. I'm not too sure what an American equivalent to Peckhams would be, but they have some great pies and cakes, as well as other random items.
