Weekend Notes

If Jon would allow us to, we would be eating out seven nights a week. I'm just not one of those people who finds cooking to be enjoyable, relaxing, cathartic, etc. I have tried and tried, but it just feels like work to me. And I already do enough of that during the daytime.

So any weekend that involves good meals out = a good weekend to me. Some of the highlights from the past 2-3 days:

  • Post-dinner yogurt at Fraiche on Friday and Saturday. No, I'm not addicted. But close.
  • A gigantic bowl of Vietnamese porridge for breakfast on Saturday from Out the Door. It had been ages since I'd last enjoyed this classic comfort food. (My mom used to make it a lot when we were growing up.)
  • Donuts and a Dutch pancake from Citizen Cake just a few hours later.
  • Saturday night dinner at a new-to-us restaurant: Mantra.
  • I was jonesing for some of their spicy deviled eggs, so we went to the Dutch Goose last night.

As if all of the above yumminess wasn't enough, we also snacked on all sorts of Miette treats throughout the weekend.

Yes, it's a good thing we're both seeing a personal trainer these days.
