Beau and I collaborated on this together over skype, which is basically one of our bullet points. He was ready to go to sleep, but I insisted on a quick brainstorming session first.
- We are children at heart, but adults when it comes to important stuff. We enjoy being silly together.
- Bacon.
- Beau loves to drive, and I love sitting in the passenger's seat, live-tweeting our road trips.
- Biscuits and gravy.
- We both like Star Trek, cuddles, and gummy bears. Bonus points for naked cuddling while eating gummy bears and watching Star Trek.
- Wings and beer.
- Beau writes guest posts for me, and he gives me ideas for my blog. Like answering my questions to this post. Plus he's totes cool with appearing in a documentary in which we discuss not having sex.
- Steak.
- We interrupt our list of reasons of why we work to over-analyze the scientific aspects of having a double-blind taste test of steak, pan vs. grill, including a debate on how to measure the seasoning properly so it's a fair test. This is completely normal.
- Sometimes Beau surprises me with flowers, but he also understands why I like to buy myself flowers.
- I have great boobs and a great butt. Beau likes my boobs and butt.
- We're both very practical and good at keeping a budget, but our budget includes room for splurges and spontaneity.
- Pizza.
- Beau doesn't mind when I tell him the same childhood story for the tenth time.
- Basically, we love each other, and we respect each other, and we have similar goals, and we like books, and we're nerdy, and we have a lot of fun doing lots of things or doing nothing.
You guys sound a bit like me & my partner, he & i are a bit nerdy too :) a shared love of bacon, beer, gravy, and pizza are always brilliant grounds for a relationship! Found you on the bloghop, so I've started following you. Look forward to your future posts!

The only problem with our shared love of unhealthy food is that neither of us encourages the other to eat healthy food... But we both consume very small quantities of food, so our overall caloric intake isn't too bad. Silver lining, right?
DeleteNerdy couples are the best, so I'll def check out your blog! Thanks for following!
you guys are so cute! I love how beau respects your choice to keep your last name, something you've talked a lot about on your blog!
ReplyDeleteAww, thanks! Yeah, he's so supportive of all my beliefs and ambitions and everything. I'm very lucky! But I knew he would be cool about the name thing, since I tested him within a few weeks of our relationship. ;)
DeleteWhat a sweet post. I have to admit, that's something I find so charming about my husband. We both love ice cream...we even met at an ice cream stand. But I don't like coffee flavor, one of his favorites. I wrote about it here: http://www.alovelylifeindeed.com/2013/01/thats-love.html To this day, he does not order coffee, on the off chance that I may want a bite. <3 SO sweet!
ReplyDeleteAnyway, thanks so much for linking up today at the Fresh Face Friday hop. I'm your newest follower. Cheers! And Happy Valentine's Day!

ReplyDeleteI mean, we do share a lot of meals. It's a mandatory part of our relationship to share our favorite foods! ;)
DeleteJust found your blog through the link-up and am really excited that I did! You two seem like such a great couple! Beer and steak makes any relationship better :)
ReplyDeleteAw, thank you! Yes, beer and steak are two of our favorite food groups. ;)
