The Last Few Weekends

Last Friday I had the day off as a "floating Easter Holiday." I couldn't have asked for a better day off! The weather was amazing! Ben, Jeff, and I headed over to Snooze for breakfast. It was amazing! Breakfast food is one of my favorites. I had a pancake flight where I got to pick 3 different pancake flavors. I went with Cinfully Cinnamon, Pineappe Upside Down Pancakes, and Reeses. So, so good!! That afternoon, Ben and I went for a run around Wash Park and then threw food on the grill and watched the opening day of the Rockies. I love opening day! There's such a great energy all over town. And, the Rockies won, so it was an added bonus!

My delicious pancake flight!

On Saturday we went up to Eaton to celebrate our Friend Eric's birthday. A bunch of us went to the Rio for dinner before heading back to their house for game night. It was a great night filled with laughs.

This weekend, Eric and Erin came down on Friday. We met up for dinner and went to surprise Jeff at his restaurnat, Cafe Terracotta. It was a good night.
Yesterday, my mom and I were going to go try a tea house in Louisville. We were so disappointed and ended up walking out. It wasn't a tea house at all! It was just a restaurant that had a seperate tea menu. But, we did end up finding a cute little bakery, A Grande Finale, right across the street. We're both suckers for sweets, so of course we had to check it out! We split a chocolate croissant and a linzertorte, an almond crust filled with seedless raspberry jam, fresh ripe raspberries and blueberries. All topped with a lattice crust and lightly dusted with powdered sugar. It was delicious!!

I'll post pictures soon
