Good Morning! I started this Tuesday like every Tuesday nowadays. At 6:15 am, I had more blood taken. After I was done, I walked next door to the coffee shop, it was dark in there but door was open. I asked the guy in there but nope, not open yet. So I went for a walk back past our apartment and all the way to Dunkin Donuts instead, bough a coffee black and walked home. I took Thor out and then made myself breakfast to eat with my coffee and sent hubby off to work. Felt pretty good to walk that much first thing in the morning, even if it was freezing outside.
I started to write a post yesterday about our weekend but had so many other things on my todo list that I didn’t finish writing. So…
We had a fantastic weekend as always. On Friday, we went to an Italian place, Siena Ristorante. Surprisingly lots of people there around 6pm when we got there. We ordered a bottle of red and duck for starters. J got some lamb pasta for his main course and I ordered hand made fettuccine with truffle flavored cream and mushroom. Omg, delicious! I’d go back for that!
On Saturday, we woke up early in case the cable guy would show up at 8. He didn’t. We made coffee and had a nice and relaxed morning together. Around 10 or so, I took my coffee and Thor downstairs and met the guy. T and I stayed by the fireplace down there for quite some time while the guy was in our apartment changing our tv/internet provider. When he had left, J and I went to the gym. I have been on the bike a lot lately, it actually feels ok in my knees now. At 2pm, Thor had a spa appointment, and we were starving so we drove to some bar/restaurant in Darien. And then we just waited for our fluffbutt to be done. We picked T up closer to 7 and then had a very relaxed evening with J watching basketball and I watched first season of Game of Thrones (I’ve seen it before but don’t remember).
Avocado BLT and Lagunitas — Almond latte from Lorca
Sunday started with a walk to Dunkin. Around noon, we went to Tigin for brunch. Their bloody mary’s are really good and spicy. In the afternoon we had decided to have a full cleaning day (meaning; I clean and ask J for help from time to time, that’s a deal I made with myself when I moved in with him 7 years ago). Before living here I said absolutely no to ever have carpet in my home, but then I had to admit that it’s kinda nice to walk on carpet in the bedroom (plus this one was brand new) and when we have been talking details for our house, we have picked out carpet for the bedrooms. But after this weekend I once again hate carpet. There are places I can’t vacuum on my own on my regular cleaning days, like behind the bed, behind the big mirror etc, so now I asked J to help me move furniture. Oh man, so disgusting. Two years of dust, yuck.
J was having fever and chills that afternoon, so after super duper cleaning of the bedroom and dealing with laundry, I made him some tea, he watched basketball and I watched GOT.
Warmer outside for a day
yummy brunch with avocado toast, bloody mary and fried goat cheese
That was our weekend. Lots of eating out, cleaning and tv watching:)
I hope you guys had an awesome weekend! Did you eat out as much as we did or did you cook some awesome things at home?
