Monday, Monday...

PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket

Good morning, lovelies! Is it really Monday already? Please tell me that it's not and that I can crawl back into my comfy bed. Pretty please?

Feeling kinda lazy this morning after a wonderful weekend that seemed to fly by way too fast. I was down in Washington DC for while J was attending a conference. I had a fabulous time. DC is such a great town. I've been many times before but this time was better than I could have imagined.

We walked around like tourists on Saturday afternoon, snapping photos of all of the sites. It was so much fun to really stop and take it all in. We even stopped by The Smithsonian to see Julia Child's kitchen. So much fun.

After our long stroll we had an absolutely amazing meal at Zaytinya, a Turkish, Greek & Labanese restaurant. The food was out of this world. And we were able to eat vegan & gluten free so we didn't even have to break our new way of eating. I sooo wish that it was located here in NY. I might have to make another trip on down to DC in the very near future :)

Right after that delicious meal we walked across the street and caught a hockey game at the Verizon Center. Another hockey arena to check off of our list. J & I are huge hockey fans and our goal is to visit all of the NHL arenas in the US & Canada. So far we've hit 14 out of 30. We're almost half way there!

And then before I knew it, I was right back on a train on up to NYC. It all seemed to happen in a flash so you can understand me wishing for just one more day, right? Oh and to make matters worse, I left J on down in DC for the night because the conference lasts until today so my Sunday night sleep was even worse than usual.

Oh well, I always have my good friend "Joe" to rely on in times like these so I'll be ready to go in no time. Someone get me a latte quick! :)

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend and that your week gets off to a fabulous start!

Weekend in Washington

PhotobucketPhotobucket

Happy Friday, lovelies! And welcome to the weekend!

I'm off tonight to Washington DC for the weekend. J has a conference down there so the majority of the weekend I'll be wandering around the quaint neighborhoods solo. Oh and I'll probably head on over to Georgetown to squeeze in some shopping. A girl has to keep herself occupied, right? :)

Any fun plans this weekend? Hope you all have a fabulous one, whatever your plans!

xoxo
