Before we were dating in college, a small group of us friends would plan study time at Barnes and Noble. It would always involve a lot of laughter and ruckus. I dared Gabe once to take a few books and pretend to trip and fall in front of the middle clerk desk. I cried laughing […]

Cute date. I love a good ol’ book. I still can’t get into the e-reader thing!
I love this idea!
I’m hoping to try something like this with Ty next summer.
🙂
Oh my gosh have you tried their chocolate covered bing cherries and speculooos candy bars. I DIE!!!!
Such a fun date night.

So fun! I could definitely spend hours browsing and treasure hunting in bookstores. And Trader Joe’s… the best. Those potstickers are awesome! The Thai Gyozas (the Thai version of potstickers) from TJ’s are really good, too! And I love all the chocolate covered everythings they carry 🙂
Trader Joes is a must in this house. LOVE LOVE!
I love their potstickers – so tasty!
I love that the date nights you’re coming up with are fun, but not expensive. I was just telling my husband we need more date nights, but he thought I meant lots of fancy dinners. I need to show him this series on your blog 🙂 If it’s free, he’ll definitely be in!
I’ll have to try the potstickers! …I had a horrible addiction to their orange chicken during the fall (I was eating it at least once a week). I successfully kicked the habit and try to stay away from the frozen section lol
What a cute date! I love bookstores. I can’t wait to see the next one.
precious pictures and sweet dates 😉
we also love chasing for good reads together, at half price bookstore.
how exciting for the coming summer birthday surprise !!
I love this date! Simple, cheap, fun. Bookstores are some of my favorite places 🙂 Can’t wait to see what he has up his sleeve for your bday!

You two are so cute!! Love this date night – it all sounds perfect! I could spend endless hours in book stores too. Just something about them that I can’t get enough of. We are finally getting Trader Joe’s here in Houston, and I can’t wait to check it out after I’ve heard so many amazing things!
Every day at Trader Joe’s is a good day. And y’all look so studious at the bookstore! Heh. Great idea.
Trader joes is a must. Glad you had fun at Barns N Noble! I could spend hours in that store

You know, sometimes it’s the mundane, everyday errands that you can turn into fun dates – like book shopping and getting groceries. Love this! And it makes me miss Trader Joe’s quite a bit. Thanks for sharing!
TJ’s has amazing dark peanut butter cups 🙂 What sauce do you put on the potstickers?
this summer dates idea is really cute…and i love seeing pics 🙂
I like your reading selection!

You just touched on two of my absolute favs. My boyfriend and I are both huge book people, and honestly can’t seem to NOT make in into a bookstore together. As for Trader Joes… well, I’m in there about three times a week 😉
Loving this 21 dates of summer idea, so precious!
have a fantastic birthday! I’m sure he’ll have something amazing planned! we love book hunting, too…but we like the really old, moth-ball smelling used book stores the best!
you are SO cute!!
This is super cute!
could you two be any cuter?!?!
we need a babysitter before we can do fun things like this!
these are wonderful date ideas! looks like you two have too much fun. 🙂
cheers.
Ah, this story & post are so cute : )
I love going book hunting. I can’t remember the last time I bought a book…Sounds like I need a date night 🙂
Such a fun idea. You and your husband are cute together.
What a perfect date night idea! The Boy and I need more simple, inexpensive ways to spend time together aside from cuddling up with the pup and wine to a movie. You also are an adorable couple!
love trader joes!
