What a Weekend

Hi! Happy Tuesday!

I really should NOT be here writing this post because my entire business plan is due by midnight tonight, but… here we are 😉

This weekend was SO GOOD! It was my perfect combination of relaxation, getting things done, seeing friends, having fun, eating good food, and working. The only thing we didn’t do that’s driving me nuts is we didn’t clean the house…. lucky Luis.

FRIDAY

Friday was a busy, busy day, per usual. I spent the morning doing what I spend 90% of my mornings doing…baking bagels.

And cookies- lots of cookies. From there, I had a tour with a couple of people that was enjoyable (not overly, but it was fine) and then I had to rush home and get a few things done before rushing back out the door to head to a meeting with Luis and some technical people about a possible local! All very exciting, but also $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ and a lot of work! Also, here was my bagel of the day:

Afterwards, Luis and I went to the supermarket and then made not one, but TWO cheesecakes because the first one came out like a DISASTER.

I nearly cried because we made the second one at midnight. Luis is such a good sport about it though. I found myself a very good delivery boy!

SATURDAY

On Saturday, I was up early for some more baking for a customer who came by around 12, but Luis and I also spent a few hours working on my business plan before going out for a run and a NTC workout together. I am STILL sore and Luis complained minimally throughout the entire thing. In the afternoon, I went with him to his parents’ house for lunch.

Spanish appetizers:

That’s a fresh summer tomato, tuna (from a jar), olive oil, and salt. I could eat this all day! We also had vegetable puree and salmon with potatoes. You never leave lunch hungry, that’s for sure.

When we finished, Luis and I put on bathing suits and headed to the POOOOL! We sat in the sunshine for a bit, chatted, and Luis put his feet in the ice cold water. After about 45 minutes, we headed back inside to head to Mercadona (supermarket) for the weekly haul and then headed back home before a fun night.

We went to a comedy show to see my friend Jake perform!

He and his friend were SO good! Had me cracking up and I’m not an easy audience.

Luis went out with friends, but I went to BED!

SUNDAY

On Sunday, I was up early to get some work done and then go for a quick run.

I wanted to get a workout in before heading to a friend’s brunch! My friend (and old roommate) Leanna hosted a brunch on her little terrace it was such a good time! We had bagels with all the fixins and an amazing chocolate Guiness cake. I was full (of food and happiness).
