Well another week is upon us and I can gladly say that this weekend was really restful. As much as I wanted to cross off some items from my many to-do lists I didn’t do anything that wasn’t required. It was so relaxing and decadent to not be running around like a crazy person.
Friday: I spent the night catching up on my DVR’s so I don’t have pictures of it.
Saturday:
1. I started the morning off with a really large cup of coffee. Seamus actually let me sleep in until 6:30 which is really late for him.
2. I made a quick run to the grocery store and picked up this Smoked Gouda with Bacon cheese.
3. I started knitting a new fall hat while watching a ton of Movies. Including No Strings Attached, Miss Congeniality, Message in a Bottle and Bridesmaids.
4. I baked 2 slices of Hard Salami per muffin tin in the oven at 400 degrees for 8-10 minutes to make cups then added some cucumber, tomatoes and cheese.
5. Just in time for the Ohio State Game to start I made Cheesy Corn Chowder with Bacon and Gorgonzola from How Sweet It Is. It was AMAZING!! Probably my favorite soup EVER now! Ohio State kicked some Florida A&M butt. Total shutout 76-0.
Sunday:
6. I started my morning off with some juicing! This is Apples, orange, carrots, celery and blueberries.
7. I finished this book. I have another 4 out from the library so I need to get reading. I can’t figure out how I feel about this book. It was not what I expected and the ending took a really weird turn. I didn’t hate it but it was just random.
8. I finished my Slouchy Cable Beret! Looking forward to wearing it once the weather gets cooler. It knitted up quickly too. It is actually a more mint color than the pic shows.
9. Snuggle time with Seamus for the rest of the night watching a little Breaking Bad.
Overall very relaxing weekend. I even took a 25 minute power nap on Sunday after the Patriots game. Not having to fit so much into such a small amount of time was really refreshing. I am going to enjoy it while it lasts because I know it won’t last long!
How was your weekend?

Oh the “cups” in picture 4 looks AMAZING… gosh that looks SOO good. Also, great job on the hat. I love it!!! Fix your hair with big wavy curls and put the hot on top, you will look adorable! Have a great week girlfriend!
Thanks! It was so yummy and quick to put together. Great minds think alike, that was how I plan on wearing it. When I finished my hair was less than glamorous! Hehe! Hope you have a great week too!!
I really really really need a rest weekend. One is not on the agenda for quite a while. Pinned the soup, it looks great!
I haven’t had one is like 8 weeks so it was so needed, hope you get one eventually. Much needed! The soup was AMAZING!! So glad I have leftovers.
OMG!!!! I need one of those hats! Please open an Etsy store so I can get my paws on that!
Thank you!! I am afraid that everything would be covered in dog hair! That might be frowned upon! 🙂
I am obsessed with gouda. My husband calls me a cheese monster. But smoked gouda with bacon? That sounds like a total game changer!
It was so good, though you can’t go wrong with BACON!! Haha! I think Smoked Gouda has to be my favorite cheese! If you can find it you should try it!
That cup is so cute! I am such a dog lover. Looks like you had a great weekend!
Thank you! I got it at Marshall’s. It was such a nice relaxing weekend!
Your hat is adorable and perfect for the fast approaching cooler weather!
Thank you! The morning are already pretty cold here so I will need it for my morning puppy walks!
ok friend. Dog hair or not, I must have one of those hats. My happiness depends upon it;)
Haha! Thanks friend! Do you have a color preference?
Your weekend sounds awesome! I love cozy, restful weekends like that!
It was amazing and so needed! I have very few of them!
