Let's catch up from the weekend...

So, it has been a while since I last blogged. The week back to work following the vacay was hectic and this week hasn't been any easier. Let's see what we did on the weekend...

Saturday...
Wow, a few days has passed and I can barely remember what we'd done. One of the major things had to be working in the garden and getting the fall plants ready. Went to pick up some nice decorative cabbage/kale (green and purple) and also ornamental purple peppers. Ya, they look like mini eggplants but they're peppers. Otherwise we'd just chilled and did some cleaning around the house, drank some Alsace Riesling and watched movies. Our definition of a perfect weekend.









Sunday...
Slept in a bit, went to grab breakfast and then headed to check out Autofest where Amanda's dad's Camero was being showcased, what a beaut.








We ended up spending 4 plus hours at the show, what a group of vehicles and the hours of blood and sweat that had gone into them. We actually stood through three sun showers as some of the cars participated in a parade. The atmosphere was great and the smiles on the faces of not only kids, but the adults were priceless.








After the show, Amanda, Amanda's dad and I went to Shrimp Cocktail to have dinner. The 1.5lbs plus lobster special with butternut squash risotto that Amanda's dad had looked and smelled amazing. There was beet & mixed greens salad and vegetarian cannelloni for the vegetarian Amanda. There was also fresh raw oysters and Mediterranean spaghetti for the pescetarian me.
