Weekend Wrapup {Feb 13}


Hello Monday!  We are wrapping up our weekend, watching the SuperBowl as I type out this blog post.  We are not really cheering for either team, and it has been a fun game to watch so far.  Here's a look at our weekend in review.

 



Friday afternoon I had fun following along with the Auburn social media accounts to see the line of students camping out for the basketball game against Alabama.  College Game Day was coming Saturday morning, and there was lots of hype and excitement about the game.  This picture shows the basketball arena and Jack's dorm area.  Unfortunately, Jack was swamped with homework this weekend, and didn't go to the game.

I watched a movie Friday night (Somebody I Used to Know on Amazon Prime), but don't really recommend it.  I think I gave it a score of about 5 out of 10!


Saturday morning I enjoyed a coffee with lots of foamy milk...yum.


Michael and I went out to lunch at Walk-on's.  I had a "grown-up grilled cheese" complete with marinara dipping sauce.  


I forgot to mention I did some baking on Friday.  I really hadn't baked anything since the holidays, and I just felt in the mood for some homemade things.  I made banana bread, using the Magnolia cookbook recipe instead of our traditional recipe.  It was really good - more like a snack cake instead of bread.


I had some leftover chocolate chips and made a half recipe of Tollhouse cookies.


I read this book all weekend - couldn't put it down!

On Sunday, we went to church and lunch at Jason's Deli.  I took a little nap when we got home.

The rest of Sunday afternoon, we enjoyed the gorgeous weather on the patio.  And then had some snacks to go along with the game in the evening.  It was a good weekend!

How was your weekend?

Come back Wednesday
 for my Spring Book Preview.

    That grilled cheese looks amazing as does your banana bread. Joanna recommends making it in an 8x8 and I think I kinda like it like that, right? Now I'm craving banana bread! I love your patio and mini solo stove. I should have lit mine this weekend. I was in the sun for as long as I could yesterday and it was amazing. I fell asleep!

  2. Porch weather! I know you and Michael both enjoy the weather when it's like that. I love the pictures of Albie enjoying the yard while the sun was out! I'm intrigued about that book...I finished a book this weekend as well and hope to finish another one tomorrow night. Have a great day, my friend!

  10. All your baking looks good! It was so nice to see the sun here as well. I always like Jason's Deli, but just don't go there much. I need to go again soon.

  14. Grilled cheese and tomato soup is one of my favorite things in the whole world. I would have never thought to dip it in marinara instead... that is brilliant! I'll definitely have to try that sometime, too!
