Weekend Tidbits

Posted on | November 2, 2009 | 4 Comments

What a great weekend I had. So nice to be home with nothing to do. Friday we had a date night and tried a lovely little neighborhood wine bar. We’ll def be back. We decided to forgo the typical Halloween celebrations and stay in to prepare the perfect fall dinner; grilled steaks, over roasted brussel sprouts and lots of good red wine. Better than fighting the crowds of drunken slutty cats and naughty nurses any day. Plus we sort of had to stay home to root for the Yankees from the comfort of our couch. Sunday brought a little bit of crafting while listening to some fantastic tunes from the best show ever – Glee (see below). I caught a showing of Where the Wild Things Are (which was amazing!) and late Sunday afternoon we took a nice, long stroll through Central Park to see how fall is coming along (nicely, btw). We kept walking and grabbed lattes at our fave NYC coffee place which we enjoyed on the quad at Columbia (so pretty). We wrapped up the weekend by settling in for more baseball and some homemade black bean, corn and sausage soup. Delish. Now, enough about me, what kind of fun did you lovelies get into?

    Ooo my that looks so lovely. And dinner, coffee, walking, movie… wonderful!

    Thank God I am in a group of friends who considered wearing a witch hat to hand out candy a costume. I would hate to see them (or myself) as a naughty nurse or slutty kitty.

    We did have a wonderful Halloween– all kitschy and kiddie. Vintage Charlie Brown was involved.

    yay, Glee! i have downloaded every song from that show and listen to them constantly… it’s an addiction!
    so jealous of your central park stroll, i’m over our 85 degree weather in LA.
    thank you so much, can’t wait for my package to arrive ;)

    Suddenly I’m starving for steak and brussel sprouts, and it’s only 11am here. As if I haven’t said it enough, you could seriously be a food photographer.
