Scenes from a Long Weekend

3

May 30, 2013 by Casey

This past weekend was glorious as it was the first time we have both been home the whole weekend in what seemed like forever. Also the weather was perfect (read 70 degrees and below). We did a lot of fun activities like visit the art museum for music and cocktails, go to the farmers market, get our favorite sandwiches, checked out some live music, hung with friends, etc. I also cooked a lot of new and fun recipes. So much went on that I think it will be easier to tell you in photos.

Lentil & Cous Cous Salad I made Friday for dinner

Tofu Hoagie from Fu Wah Market the best $4.30 sandwich money can buy

Strawberry Rhubarb Pie I made with my farmers market selections

I made a non gluten free version of this dish for dinner on Saturday with fresh local asparagus

Original Recipe thanks to Girl Makes Food

Sunday started with coffee. Coffee is better with homemade whipped cream. Its science.

I made cornmeal cakes from FSC book club selection and topped them with poached eggs, black beans, salsa and fresh green onions for brunch.

We picked up some special beers and tried one on Sunday. It was great!

We went on a fun picnic on Sunday as well and enjoyed more asparagus along with a great view of the museum. True benefit of our neighborhood!

Weekends like this make me wish every weekend was 3 days. Hope everyone else enjoyed theirs!
