we really can't
take self-portraits

Things can change a lot in two years.  From suited, booted and clean-shaven to a dressing for comfort and not-so-designer scruff.  From perfectly coiffured and oh-so-slim to big pregnant hair and a big pregnant belly.  Some things, however, remain exactly the same.  We're both still fans of an attention-grabbing lip colour and a decent bite to eat (although our wedding day combination of Chinatown lunch and burritos for dinner remains to be surpassed, we ate here this year and would highly recommend it).  Most importantly though, the commitment we made is as strong as ever - and all the more real and powerful for having been lived (some days more graciously than others) over the past two years.  Happy anniversary, CNN my buddy and here's to many more to come.

And because I'm vain, this the outfit I'm very proud of having pulled together...

'scuse the background
it's the entrance
to our apartment block

Do you like my shawl?  CNN did good.  The traditional wedding gift next year is leather (someone is very excited about this).
