Until then, all my dinner party conversations will be in English. Here's a hint at what we'll be talking about...

7 Words Your Probably Misusing... (ex: you can't have a monthly anniversary!)
Comic-Con recipes? Looks pretty good to me! (Who knew Comic-Con was so awesome?)

As an economics major, I toooootally have to disagree with that last article. I think we're taught morals at a young age, and those don't fade over time. At least they haven't for me. Also, I don't consider myself to be greedy at all, selfish definitely but not greedy! :]
@Hollie- I'm thinking our dinner party conversations would be amazing.
very interesting links. Thanks for the sprinkled wisdom in these gems. Have a nice weekend!
Comic-Con recipes? Hello, now that I need to check out!
Happy, Happy Weekend, my love! :)
the floral arrangement in that photo is sooooo similar to the flowers at my best friend's wedding a couple of weeks ago. I love them!
Cool links!
Love this post idea. I think it's important for long term couples to keep the interesting and lively discussions flowing.
oh i love your links!!!!! esp the one about the 7 words ;) .............My first ballet teacher was french, beautiful memories :)
LOVE your dinner parties. Tif, we are ready to launch - are you with us? If not - can I use your dinner parties?( linked, of course). I just think this is such an amazing idea - i can't let it go.

going to check out your links now! have a great weekend!
Psssh! we'd be way to busy eating to talk. :]
How I wish I was a guest at a Branflake dinner party–it would certainly be the best!
hehe this is too cute! love that you are continuing this lil feature. happy weekend, friend!
that image is fabulous!!!
i bet your french is better than my spanish! lol
hope your weekend is SUPER!!!!
I heard about the enforcement of the Olympic rings, and I think it's sad. If individuals or small businesses, especially ones in Britain want to show their support of the Games, why should they be punished? Use common sense people!
I'd love to go one day to comic-con... And see the guys from true blood... Haha!!!
I took French too.....I wonder how much I still truly know. I think I need to go to Paris and figure it all out. hehe. I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
French is a difficult language. In Europe it seems most people speak at least two or more languages.. fluently! Amazing..
Fun links and great dinner conversation!
Have a wonderful weekend.

Off to check out which words I'm misusing!
Great links! Have a wonderful weekend!
i love cheesy though. i need to go check out the pants link!
Interesting links! Great roundup :)
Amazing!
This is gorgeous!! Loving your blog. Newest reader!
oh no- after I read the word misuse I got sucked into an internet time travel zone and didn't emerge for like 30 minutes haha. great links! I was misusing just deserts/desserts.
Those links sound super interesting. Off to check them out right now. Muah,sweetie
I just love that you took a great ballet class and that you tried to speak in French...I took years of French, and always try to speak it when I am in France, but my long term goal is to be fluent in it! Perhaps one day you and I will be able to have a conversation in the language as well! :)
There's definitely a mutual Comic-Con interest, and how lovely Mr. B. is interested in the London Olympics (and all things athlete)... I find accessing my French terribly difficult, too.
I love the grammar article - loose and your are too words I always see misused!
Happy week dear!
