Italian Anyone?

If you are in the mood for a wonderful sit down Italian meal, Magliano's Little Italy is the place to go.  My husband and I enjoy going here for a little higher priced meal.

Relationship Reconnection: The power of empathy is key to a strong relationship.  Empathy requires compassion and compassion builds a bond.  This bond is what holds a relationship together.  One way to practice empathy is to give genuine attention when our spouse is speaking.  When you are genuinely listening, you are focusing on them and taking action to truly understand them.  Listen without focusing on your own response. Truly listen.


RiverWalk

Take a stroll on the Milwaukee River. Hold your sweetheart hand in hand. Enjoy a relaxing date talking to one another. Try to ask one another about how your day was. Remember to not talk until your spouse has fully finished their sentence. Listen before you reply to their thoughts.

Relationship Reconnection: Sexual intimacy is an important part of a healthy marriage. Sexual relations isn’t just about the physical, but is very mental and emotional. Plan a night when you can spend time together without interruptions or other engagements. If you have children, find a babysitter and get a hotel room or arrange time so you can be together.



Chocolate

Do you love chocolate as much as I do? Indulgence Chocolatier has handcrafted chocolate truffles, premium toffees and other fine confections. 

Relationship Reconnection: Be adventurous! Try a different type of chocolate than you would normally try. Explore something outside your comfort zone. Better yet, let your spouse pick a sweet treat for you to try. Be thankful for for their efforts in trying to pick something that you would like. Thank them! It is hard to try to pick the perfect treat for someone. Be happy that they were trying to make you happy.

Library


This is a wonderful library to go and visit if you have a Saturday to explore Milwaukee. It's gorgeous, the tour is super interesting and the original Audobon prints are beautiful. Lovely architectural features, beautiful detail and great location. As you are looking around, try to find a book that you and your spouse would enjoy reading together.
