I think the week
should be the weekend.
Then we could work for two days.
And have five days off.
That would be lovely.
Dontcha think?
If this was the case I could do more fun things.
Here are the fun things I was able to fit into this weekend…
FRIDAY:
played pinball.
ate pizza.
drank ginger beer.
Then we got to see my lovely Claire and her husband Matt. They were in town from L.A. We love them and I miss Claire something fierce. We were college roommies and were both in each other’s weddings and I pretty much love her a ridiculous amount. It was so good to get to see them both…. even if it was only for a short time. I also got to catch up with some other beautiful ladies and it was a lovely time. Oh…and don’t mind my gigantor forehead. I seriously need to get my bangs cut so I don’t have to pin them back anymore. Hopefully on Tuesday.
SATURDAY:
We didn’t get this. But it was pretty fabulous, no?
Then we hung out in the sunshine.
Ate burgers.
Drank milkshakes.
Chatted for hours.
It was lovely.
After that I went to a birthday dinner for my brother.
Burritos + ice cream cake. What could be better?
Then came home and watched “The Hangover” with Craig.
I’d never seen it. Pretty hillarious.
SUNDAY:
Made snickerdoodle cookies for my
“Baked Good of the Month Club”.
I suck at the Baked Good of the Month Club.
I’m supposed to make a sweet treat every month for my dad and Craig’s dad. This was their Christmas gift. Well…. it’s currently February 22nd and they just got their treat for January. Ooops. It’s the thought that counts, right? Hmmmm….maybe not with this one.
Then lunch with my parents.
Later we went to Toro Bravo for my
mother-in-law’s birthday.
I wanted to save my little sanpellegrino bottle cause I thought it would make a cute vase. But sadly my waitress took it away when I wasn’t looking.
We ate yummy tapas.
Grilled bacon wrapped dates in honey.
Chorizo & manchego on rustic bread.
Salt cod fritters with aoili.
Grilled flat bread with black truffle cheese & arugula.
etc….etc….etc…..
DELICIOUS.
And we had gelato for dessert.
I think maybe I ate a bit too much yumminess this weekend. I’ll have to make up for it this week I guess.
How was your weekend?

wow, your weekend was way better than mine thats for sure
Oh man, I wish I had a five day weekend and a two day week! It’s not fair!
We had a nice weekend, went to a vietnamese restaurant and watched movies, I got emotionally blackmailed into attending a tupperware party which made me want to injure myself with something plastic, Adam got a new tattoo, we saw Shutter Island at the movies, and did a tiny amount of chores. It goes so fast. I glad you had such a fun filled weekend! x
That was quite a fun weekend. And you’re right, that bottle would make an awesome vase.
I wish weekends are longer too. xoxo
What a fun weekend! I love the vintage look of the first place. And burritos and ice cream sound heavenly to me.
My weekend = lame. Spent it at a retreat with 40 teenagers. So, no sleep for me:(
wow, that was a busy weekend, this was my laziest weekend ever (but in my defense, I didn’t feel well for half of it)! We did get to visit some friends and their daughter that we haven’t seen in a while!
what a wonderful weekend!! and filled with delicious goodies and wonderful friends! i am so on board with the switching of the week with the weekend!! and the baked good of the month club might be the best idea EVER!

Looks like you had an awesome weekend! I completely agree with you, the weekend should be 5 days long, we would all be much more relaxed!
Wow, what a packed weekend! Burritos, ice cream, ginger beer and The Hangover … not sure it gets any better:)
Sounds like a great weekend! I totally agree with you on switching up the work week. What should we do? Hold a petition? 🙂
Your weekend always blows mine out of the water. What a fun very packed weekend.I love that you go thrifting all the time. I went thrifting this weekend, but I was there for some certain things, I found some pretty good deals that I am stoked about. P.S. You don’t have a gigantic forehead.

I KNOW I’ve eaten too much this weekend and today! Your pizza, burritos, snickerdoodles and gelato sound deeelicious!
I thought The Hangover was hilarious, and I couldn’t stop laughing at Allen! Everything from the purse to finding a baby once before to the lone wolf speech! So funny!
Glad you had a good weekend!
Wow, your post just made me ridiculously hungry…
What do your mean that you didn’t buy that coat, it is sooo rad! You would be the envy of all. LOL
that coat is out of control lol i envy your weekend. i spent saturday putting in extra hours at work. i would have rather drank beer and played pinball
What a great fun-filled weekend!I am so glad that we had a small part of it. 5 day weekends sound amazing!!!! That B-day cake was pretty amazing right?!
I love fun, dreamy weekends like that..full of food, friends and lazy days! I just relived my weekend in my post today! AND yes, I love the idea of 5 day weekends! Bliss!
Yes, the week should be the weekend. Genius! It looks like you had a fun one.
love the weekends revolved around food! where is the place you had pizza at?
sounds like an awesome weekend!!! snickerdoodles and the hangover are my favorites. 🙂
