Sunday Funday!!!

Good morning all! I have had SUCH a wonderful weekend! It started with a fun dinner Thursday night with Elizabeth and Phyllis. It was so great to get to see them on there way through town! Then, on Friday Amanda's flight was cancelled which put a damper on the day. But, I ended up going to Verde with Laurie, Jill and Elizabeth on a "mommies night out" and was their chaperone. Haha. We had tacos and Margarita and lots of laughs. It was so wonderful to get them all to myself and we stayed up talking all night like we used to at the Clovehouse! Of course, it is funny how the conversations have changed since college. Now it is about breast pumping, diaper genies and puking. In college anything that had to do with breasts or puking usually went hand in hand with a wild night out. Funny how things change, I do believe for the better.

Then an early flight and a car ride brought Amanda into Atlanta and it was perfect timing for brunch at Flying Biscuit. You really have to time it right because if you get there after 10am, you have to wait for hours for a table. But those grits and biscuits are the key to a successful Saturday morning. We then discovered a new route that I would like to start running around Buckhead. It took us about an hour to walk it, so it would be a great route for a run! After that, we decided a little day drinking was in order, so we went to Front Page News in Little Five and enjoyed the afternoon.

Unfortunately for Amanda, I had to work for a few hours to help with some centerpieces and place cards - but the pay off was well worth it - Dinner at Floataway Cafe. I cannot say enough about how much I like this place. It has wonderful wines, delicious oysters, beautiful salads and tasty entrees. I had the farro dish which I brought half of it home to enjoy tonight! I then headed over to Summerfest on Irby in front of 5 Paces. 17th Floor played and we danced our little butts off! Such a good time.

So this morning we had a nice lazy morning and laid out by the pool to get a little color. We are going to Einstein's for lunch over on Juniper. I have heard great things and will let you know how it is!!!

Oh yeah and I almost adopted a dog names Luke. Seriously folks he was the most wonderful dog I have ever seen. I am seriously considering becoming a foster parent since I LOVE dogs. Friends of Animals is the direction I am thinking of going in, I really like there organization. I will keep you updated on my madness. Maybe that is just the sort of companion I need!
