We'd had a coupon for The Rok Bistro in downtown Sunnyvale for over a year but never used it because it wasn't valid on Fridays or Saturdays so we decided to celebrate early on Thursday so we could use it. Around here, the Rok Bistro is known as the poor man's La Fondue (even though it's still pretty expensive!). They are known for their yummy fondue and for serving meat on hot volcanic rocks where you get to finish cooking it yourself at your table!
Here's my handsome (and blurry) husband!

The after picture. I am so trying this at home!
Holy crap, Matthew actually took a picture of me?!
Our main course: filets of sirloin, buffalo, ahi, and chicken. All seared and then served on a volcanic rock for us to finish cooking to our liking. Served with sides of mashed potatoes and veggies. The sides weren't anything to write home about ( or blog about lol), but everything else was very tasty!
We skipped dessert (not very big chocolate fondue fans) and strolled around downtown for a bit before walking home. What a relaxing and romantic night with my love! We didn't get each other cards but we told each other what we would have written in them had we exchanged them while on our walk, so fun!
The next day (our actual anniversary) I got my new driver's license with my new name in the mail! It'll be nice to finally change everything over to my new name. I feel like I'm living a double life because I have a different name for different stuff. Whenever anyone asks me for my name I always have to stop and think about what they think my name is. I can't wait until this is all over and it's second nature. One exception though, I will be Kelly McBride Smallcombe at school so there will be some continuity between my BA and MS diplomas.
Have a great weekend everybody!
Kelly Smallcombe
