Long Distance Relationship Gifts & Fun Surprises
Some couples really have to push through distance when they are living on opposite sides of the United States, or even the world.

Words of Advice
It sounds so simple, but may not always be the easiest thing to do. Enjoy and make the best of the time that you do have with each other. Regardless of what mood you are in, late flights, feeling under the weather, stress at work, etc. just put that all behind you. Don’t look at the clock, look at each other!

I loved the black and white stripes, chandeliers, and the air conditioning wasn’t a bad idea either on this sunny day. Check out the menu here.
Where we were staying this week | The Martinique New York | Herald Square
Of course we could stay in my apartment when Pat visits, but why not make the time seeing each other a little more special and intimate in a hotel? I let him take the reins of finding out where to stay. This top floor penthouse room has been a room that we’ve come back to! Much love for The Martinique in Herald Square by Hilton.
