Nothing fires up your Friday morning like fire truck excitement - my neighbor smelled gas, but nothing came of it. Lunch was a local's special Cuban for $5.55 from Sunrise Cafe. When you work from the shore, you can be on the beach by 5:30 on Friday. And painting a closet soon after (Behr Ultra Offshore Mist). We were in bed by 8 to read.
Saturday morning was foggy as fuck but Bruce and I were still on the beach for 45 minutes before hitting Drip N Scoop for coffee and heading back to paint the parts of the porch poles that are made unreachable by the awnings that are being re-hung this week (learned that lesson last year, staring at things that should have been painted but were not), putting a finishing coat on the closet, and finishing my book before heading home.
Some time out in the sun with lost perros, then dinner at Dad & Carol's with my aunt, uncle, cousins, Stephen & Aubrey and the smart and sassy Lola Jean and cutest cuddliest Baby Seeeeeve. We hit Target in a down pour on the way home and I was in bed early again reading.
Sunday March for Babies for Team Eva the Diva, fruitless Marshalls trip for a mirror for the other shore bedroom, and lounging and cooking all day.
Weekly food prep: scrambled eggs for breakfast, hummus/veggies/pita for lunch, dinner is leftover pasta with chicken and spinach + bread, and grilled chicken using a marinade I made up.
It's nice to be able to work from the shore more with the office reno going down.
How was your weekend? Also, how is it the last day of April?
Super eventful weekend! I saw your instastories with your to do list and you were getting a lot done! xo,Biana-BlovedBoston
ReplyDeleteAny weekend that includes the shore is a good weekend.
ReplyDeleteI love the team name! That Cuban & those fries look really good.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if that's Bruce or Gus photobombing you and Mae but I love it!
ReplyDeleteWeekend was lovely. Read The House of Secrets and In a Cottage in a Wood, became a godmother, visited with my parents, and finished my third draft of the book! I want a Cuban sandwich now.
ReplyDeleteThat is some serious fog! I love a good cuban sandwich. Hope you have a great week!
ReplyDeleteThis month flew by, didn't it? All of your meal-prepped food looks amazing. I'm trying to spend more time prepping on Sundays; it makes a huge difference in my week.
ReplyDeleteThat foggy boardwalk picture is amazing.
ReplyDeleteWorking from home is the best, but even better that you are at the shore! I was at Jazz fest all weekend, doing some food prep tonight!
ReplyDeleteI have a to-do list smile long and you checking yours off makes me jealous!
ReplyDeleteYour foggy boardwalk picture is eerie. It makes the amusement park look abandoned. I like the photobombing dog picture, too!
ReplyDeleteI'm so jelly you get to work from the shore on some Friday so once you're done with work, vacation/weekend begins asap without the commute headache even though you were fully in relax mode with the painting etc.! Sounds like an awesome and productive weekend! Emily @ Martinis & Bikinis
ReplyDeleteI'm craving homemade bread now - YUM! So glad nothing came of the gas smell!
ReplyDeleteProductive weekend. I love your shore day descriptions! I love that pic of Bruce in the car, too. Haha!
ReplyDeleteThat's awesome that you can work from the shore! How long is the office reno? All summer I hope!
ReplyDeleteAnd now I need a cuban!
