Weekend Recap
Brrr!!! It is getting cold outside! I actually had ice on my car this morning! I’m not complaining, after the summer we had in South Carolina, I happily welcome the cold weather.
Anyways my weekend was a little bit of this and that:
- I tried to enjoy Friday night with a bowl of popcorn and a book but we all know things don’t go according to plan. Blah.
- I met up with a friend on Saturday and we went to see For Colored Girls. I must say, it was a really good movie. At first I was turned off and didn’t want to see it because Tyler Perry’s name was attached to it. Don’t get me wrong, I like Tyler Perry and I really enjoy his movies but I was on a Tyler Perry overload. But, I knew the movie was based off a play so I figured he couldn’t screw it up that badly, right? I was right! I laughed, cried, and left the movie with a lot of emotions running through me. I compare this to movie to Hotel Rwanda. I have seen this movie once and loved it but I will not watch it again because of all of the emotions it brought out in me (anger, rage, happy, sad, tears….lots of them). Anyways, go see the movie, it has a message for everyone. No matter your race or sex.

- ?After the movie, we headed down to The Vista to get some sushi. To our dismay, most of the sushi joints were closed ( I am not going to name names).
- Desperate to get my sushi fix, I was about to drive to Harbison…..on a Saturday. If you live in Columbia, you know what you avoid that place like the black plague on a Saturday, if you can help it.
- I pulled out my phone and started finding other places downtown. Lo and behold, one place was open, TakoSushi. I remember reading about this place on The Shop Tart’s blog. I had the Firecracker Roll. It was nom nom nom good.
- Speaking of nom nom nom good: I made some more Kale Chips this weekend. Told you I was obsessed.
- Yes that was random to throw in the Kale Chips but I am random person. Sorry (not really!).
- On Sunday, there was a whole lotta baking going on. I made some yummy, yummy, oh-so-good pumpkin muffins. Some with chocolate chips, some without (The hubs doesn’t like chocolate. Weirdo.)
- I got the recipe from a co-worker. I’ll ask her if she minds me sharing it on the bloggy wog.
- I also made an Oreo cake for my little man’s daycare teacher. It was her birthday. Yes, I am one of “those moms” that brings in yummy treats for teachers and parties. It was one of the things I was excited about when I found out I was pregnant.
- As I have mentioned before, my aunt is getting married….to her first husband. Neither one of them married again. It is Asian Fusion themed. Being the Black Sheep of the family ( I am using Black Sheep in a good way. Can I do that?), my outfit for the wedding can’t just be any regular outfit. What better way to show the Asian culture than to dress as a Harajuku Girl?!?! I started making my tutu this weekend. Here it is so far:
- I’m also making a capelet to go along with it. The wedding is this Friday so this outfit will be getting most of my attention for the rest of the week.
- I finished this weekend by watching The Walking Dead. My new favorite show! You can never go wrong with zombies, no?
Not the best picture. It was taken with my iPhone (still LURRVE my phone!) |
Hope everyone enjoyed their weekend!
