Sometimes life comes at you hard and strong. In a flurry of emails, meetings, deadlines.
In those instances, I wish I had more patience, more clarity. just more.
However I let last week get the best of me and spent the better part of my weekend attempting to recharge. Thankfully, I had the pleasure of chatting and eating with these two extraordinarily sweet ladies. Over a delightful brunch at ABC Kitchen, I felt the tension start to roll of my back. I don’t know if it was the food, the company, or a combination of both but I finally felt like myself again. The food was utterly fantastic and we definitely picked the best items. Homemade ravioli, seasonal doughnuts, tomato pizza, beet salad, roasted squash toast… And, last but not least, the salted caramel sundae which was hands down the best thing I’ve eaten in a long time. I must go again, if only to have the sundae again.
I followed up my perfect Saturday with a trip to the movies with another friend. We saw “The Artist” and it continued to brighten my spirits. The dancing, the costumes, the acting. Simply sublime! I highly recommend it.
How was your weekend? I hope it was lovely. I have a couple more recipes in store but then I’m afraid the blog will be quiet on the baking front. I’m moving in a week and have a major work function. Too many things, not enough time. But I won’t be gone for long, I promise.
Here’s to an anxiety-free week!

That looks and sounds absolutely perfect. Weekends are so amazing. I know we get one every week, but you can never have enough of them. :)
Cheers to great friends!
i live around the corner from abc kitchen and have continually pushed back my res time and time. damnit, i’m keeping it this time! everything looks amazing.
Oooh, I really want to see The Artist! I’m glad you liked it; we have similar taste in music!
Brunch was SO FAB. Even more than the food, I’m pinching myself that I’ve made such wonderful friends :)
I have been wanting (no, aching!) to go to ABC Kitchen. Unfortunately, I’ve been so busy lately so I’ve been keeping close to my ‘hood. Must remember to have that sundae when I finally do make my way to the area! Thanks for the suggestion!
