Spaghetti and Garlic Bread-TikTok

I found this video while I was exploring TikTok. Who says TikTok is a waste of time? Okay, okay, maybe I think it is a waste of time, but every so often I find something totally worthwhile, spiritually uplifting and educational. This is NOT one of those times!

Spaghetti and Garlic Bread
at
Olive Garden

By the way, our 32 year anniversary was yesterday. We were spending the day together when our son, Matthew, called. He wished Mary Margaret a very special happy anniversary. She looked over at me and said, "Did you know it was our anniversary?" Thank goodness we both have major issues. Maybe I can make it up to her by taking her to Olive Garden! You know that I am a big spender, right?

Kathy Streib, now that you mention it, I did make her some cilantro lime shrimp over rice last night and a salad. It was quite a project because most of our stuff is in Arizona. I had to be very resourceful, but it did turn out good. And thank you! ! !

Thank you very much, John Pusa

Hi Ray... first of all, happy anniversary to you and Mary Margaret! I have to admit my husband and I forget ours as well. But... we are still married. And nothing wrong with garlic bread at Olive Garden... I quite like it.

There always seems to be so much going on at this time of the year that I just think we get sidetracked, Nina Hollander, Broker. The good think is we were already spending the day together and having fun. Who would have thought after 32 years we would still have so much fun together? Best of luck remembering next year. 😉

You would think we would learn to write it down, Kat Palmiotti. It has happened several times before and it will happen again. My dad did it right. He was married on New Years Day so he would never forget. Their annual celebration for years was a trip to San Francisco for a celebration weekend.

Haven't been to Olive Garden in years, and used to like those bread sticks when they were first brought to the table and were warm. Really...both of you forgot!

We would have gone through the whole day oblivious, Lawrence "Larry" & Sheila Agranoff. Cell: 631-805-4400. I do not know why, but this is kind of a recurring theme for us. Thankfully, Mary Margaret is pretty easy to keep happy. I just had to make her a nice dinner of cilantro lime shrimp and rice. It was a good day.

Happy Anniversary! Was she asking because she didn't realize it was your anniversary or was she trying to catch you?

Thank you and you are 100% correct, Roy Kelley. My wife deserves the best restaurants for sure, but she seems to prefer my cooking. Our first real date, I made her red beans and rice with a vanilla pie for dessert. I think that put me on the right path.

I hope you have a wonderful weekend.

Ray Henson - after coming back to read this post again and the comments by you and other members of ActiveRain, I came to the conclusion that when a couple is happily married and satisfied with their other half, they really don't need a date to remember and make a big fuss over it, because love, true love, always is and always will be the best gift you give each other.

Thank you Joan Cox. It took me a bit to embrace our picture because is show me with way more wrinkles than I knew I had, but MM is so cute so I only look at her.

I do feel like I have done one thing right, Patricia Feager, MBA, CRS, GRI,MRP, and that is getting MM to marry me. 😃 Thank you for all the nice things you say. You are too sweet.

It is just hard for me to believe that it has been 32 years, Dorie Dillard Austin TX. And thank you, I do feel fortunate. This really was not the first time we forgot and, I am sure, it will not be the last time. Hope you are doing well!
