Is anyone doing anything fun for St. Patrick's Day? Tomorrow I'll be meeting someone new at a local café, having a Sunday brunch over crêpes, and then judging a mac and cheese smackdown. After that I'll be packing for a weeklong visit with a dear friend out in Connecticut. I can't wait to leave the city for a while, girl talk, and get some creative work done without distractions. It'll be like a mini retreat for two!
Here are some links I loved from around the web:

I tried sweet tea vodka with another new friend this week and it was actually good! Here are some recipes.

Why do I find out you're going to CT for a week via your blog? Next time, when you hit me up for a recipe, throw that little bit of info in there too! Um. P.S. I'm flying out to Albion, NY next Friday with 1, 2, and 7 yr old to visit their Birth Mom.
ReplyDeleteCause I hadn't really told anyone. I just told the parentals when I saw them this afternoon. Was just going to head out and that's it :p
DeleteAnd how long are you going for? Are you going alone or with a partner? Is this the first time they're seeing her in a long time?
Ah porque tu te gobiernas?! What friend you visiting??
ReplyDeleteI'm going for the day- early morning flight, evening return. I'm going with my coworker friend who recently became my supervisor, and someone from ACS may be there as well. The babies saw her a few months ago, the 7 yr old has not seen her since she was taken into custody over the summer.
Nope, not doing anything fuun for St Patrick's Day; I bearly acknowledge it to be honest. Have fun with all you're doing though, and with your time with your friend!
