Reinventing Date Night

My dear friend PZ sent us this article from the New York Times and the barkada had a long discussion on this over email:

Reinventing Date Night for Long Married Couples

Well, just to share how we "reinvented" our date , here's our story:

It was the last day of a three day weekend in Manila. Our agenda for the day: to clean the house thoroughly as we have been remiss on this the past few weeks after our US holiday. We had a simple lunch of pork adobo cooked lovingly by E while he straightened out our kitchen cabinets (yes, he is indeed a multi-tasker). My responsibilities were to thoroughly scrub the two bathrooms and clean the 2nd floor, while E, in addition to the above, had to vacuum the 1st and the 2nd floor, and clean the 1st floor. I told him I would have gladly done everything if I had my Roomba:-)

We finished cleaning in the afternoon and were planning to go out for dinner, but we were too lazy to go out by then. Instead we just watched a very Pinoy movie, One More Chance, starring our favorite love team John Lloyd Cruz and Bea Alonzo. If you haven't watched it by now, WATCH IT!

Cleaning the house and watching a very pinoy (as in nakakaiyak) love story with my love, now that was a perfect date!

Ang tamis-tamis n'yo talaga! By the way, it takes a very special man to sit through a romantic movie, let alone a Pinoy romantic movie. Bravo to E!

D, that was the idea, to try something new together=) In fact he liked it because he finds Bea pretty.
