A Simple Weekend

Last weekend, we had a full weekend. Full of friends, family, and church activities. As much as I truly love those, I am head over heels in love with slow living, and simple days.

We kicked off our weekend as usual with pizza and a selection of redbox movies. As well as these wonderful oreo stuffed chocolate chip cookies.

I spent time organizing our closet, bathroom, and kitchen. Purged 2 bags full of junk!

Lots of cooking this weekend. We grilled out and had a few of our meals outside. Nothing makes me happy like eating Al fresco and preparing for Spring!

Homemade baked fries to go with our our burgers.


Dining at our new (to us) table!  Saving for a new fence =]




Then, this morning I tried a strawberry basil scone recipe from my new BHG magazine. They were delightful.
 
Aren't the colors just beautiful?
Sprinkling sugar on top.

 

 Fresh out of the oven.



I picked up a few thing over the weekend too.
The Eucalyptus Mint candle from Bath&Body Work (it smells heavenly!)



And, have you seen the Dwell Studio (Target) dish towels?! The colors are perfect for Spring, and I love that these have gray in them that go with our cabinets. They are just so pretty!

 

Now off to finish the weekend with homemade lasagna,a loaf of french bread, and a big mediterranean salad.
