Sophie in her final semester at NYU was working on her thesis. Lars in his first year out of college was working at Candid, a NY startup. Lars eager to meet had to withstand multiple cancelled and rescheduled dates because at the time a guy she'd never met was not more important than acing the most important paper of her college career. Finally, a date was set to have a few drinks and go to the MoMa on a Saturday 2/10/18. Fate had other plans. Friday night found Lars at a friends' Shabbat and Sophie out on the town with some of her girlfriends. A little liquid courage was all it took. Before the end of the night both Lars and Sophie would decide to bring their friends to the same bar to ensure the other was real. A night full of what Sophie and Lars would call dancing and drinking at the Gem Saloon - others may not have called it that... Hundreds of dates later, Sophie and Lars have still not gone on that originally planned first date. Maybe once they're married? They go with the flow and take on each day with excitement, love, as well as an insatiable appetite for adventure and delicious food.
