Creative Ideas Needed...One year = paper

So first of all, I want to tell you a super easy pasta salad that has become a lunch staple for me. It is Caesar Pasta Salad. First, I boil the tri-colored pasta noodles, then I add Kraft Caesar Dressing, parmesan cheese, and croutons. The best are Texas Toast, I have tried garlic, salt and pepper, and caesar, they all are yummy and sometimes there are 50 cent coupons for them. Kroger doubles their coupons up to 50 cents and so you can get a dollar off. Anyhow, toss and walla!You could add chicken for a heavier dish. But it is yummy!

Now onto the meat of the post. Our one-year is two weeks away. We are going to the Brasstown Valley Resort to go horseback riding, to the spa and to play golf. www.brasstownvalley.com I am so excited to escape for the weekend with JT. We hardly ever get to spend time together on the weekends because he works all weekend until the wee hours of the morning.

So traditionally, the first anniversary gift is paper. So since we are trying to save money and the trip is our splurge, we have decided to set a budget of $10 and only get each other paper gifts. I need creative ideas girls! I have thought of a magazine, a book, baseball cards, a photo... but i want to hear your suggestions!
