Ahhh, Relaxing Weekends!

I just love having Katie as a girlfriend. Lane and I are mostly friends with couples, which is totally fun. And we do hang out with Katie and Marc together, but there’s something to be said for girl time. I mean, sometimes there are just girly, juicy things to talk about without the boys around. We’ve found our special happy hour place with cheap wine (because I am SO not a snob about wine) and heavenly spicy tuna tempura avocado rolls. YUM! On Friday we had a delightful evening together.

Later that night, Lane and I got together with some people from his work and hung out at this new Belgian bar. One of his co-workers started working at this bar and wanted us to check it out. We didn’t realize we’d have to take the metro, transfer lines, and then take a cab after that! It was quite a trek, but we arrived to a laid back atmosphere, a charming old building with good music, fancy muscle appetizers and lots of different beers to choose from.

One of the things I love about weekends are the fabulous breakfasts Lane and I make. He’s mostly in charge of the smoothies. Saturday we had eggs over easy with bacon and sourdough toasts with sautéed spinach, cherry tomatoes and garlic on top. On Sunday we had banana blueberry muffins and nectarines. Mmm. Of course, these breakfasts don’t happen until around 1:30. yay for relaxing weekends.

We also had dinner down at a Thai place in Dupont Circle and then went out to Adam’s Morgan with our friends Raquel, Ben and Joe. All of Saturday night was a fabulous lightning show. You don’t get lightning like that on the west coast.

We spent all of Sunday being lazy and read the whole afternoon and I loved every moment of it.
