Weekend in Pictures





Oh what a wonderful weekend! Andy and I went back to our hometown this weekend and had such a great time. A good friend of mine created an art show in a vacant building downtown. She called the show Guerrilla Gallery and it was up for one night only. She asked me if I would make some chocolate truffles for the event, so I agreed and then Andy and I decided to make a weekend of it. The truffles turned out great an the art show was fantastic...such talented artists! My friend who put the whole event together actually sold most of her artwork. She rocks! The rest of the weekend was spent with good friends and family enjoying ourselves completely. One morning my brother made us personal homemade latte's from his espresso machine. He roasts his own beans and takes great pride in pulling the perfect shot of espresso. It was so much fun to watch him and learn about the process. I am on such a high from this weekend, but now it is back to reality. Happy Monday!

Weekend in Pictures





Ahh, what a weekend! It is always nice to get out of the city, especially in the winter when not much is happening in DC anyway. This weekend Andy and I went to Berkley Springs, West Virginia with some good friends of ours. Berkley Springs is only about two hours away from DC (4 if you get stuck in Friday traffic!) so it seemed like the perfect weekend destination. We met Friday evening and started the weekend with wine, chocolate wine included. (Which, might I add, is much more like chocolate liquor than wine.) Then for the rest of the weekend we enjoyed great food, the windy outdoors, walking around the natural springs (74 degrees), massages at Spa Fest, and quality time with each other. To wrap up the weekend we tried some fried alligator tail, pictured above, and said our goodbyes. So now the week begins and I can only dream of what is to come next weekend!

Weekend in pictures

It was a relaxing weekend. Enjoy some pictures from our little corner of DC.

This weekend DC had its first real snow. It snowed Friday night and then a bit of rain on Saturday morning put a nice layer of ice on top. We did a lot of napping, but we also got out of the house on Saturday night.

While out Saturday night we met the a guy who never takes off his concert bracelets. (Pictured above left.) New trend? I am obviously not in the know on this trend... The other picture is of Andy and his beautiful hair. This weather does wonders for his hair!

I love the cozy feel of snow on the weekend. We pulled out our couch bed and had a huge cuddle fest watching movies and drinking tea. Can you spot the dog?

Chocolate chip cookies make lazy weekends all the better. I highly recommend this recipe. The cookies are amazing! They practically melt in your mouth. Lastly, a picture of me heading out Saturday night. Some friends of ours threw a Vietnamese New Years party and cooked some really amazing food.
