The Weekend Post #3

Ah, the long Easter weekend. The most carb laden weekend of the year. Mum went all out and baked so many amazing things. From scones, to brownies, to delicious carrot cake pictured up top. All covered with a healthy dose of cream cheese frosting, of course. This carbohydrate festival was thoroughly enjoyed by me and I'll get to do it all again tomorrow. Complete with spending a day with a friend from school and an amazing dinner at home to round off the Easter weekend.

On Saturday I settled at my desk and decided to watch one of the movies I had put away on my computer. I chose to watch Austenland. A movie about an American woman who is so obsessed with Pride & Prejudice that she rejects every man because he just isn't Mr. Darcy. She ends up going to this theme park in England that completely takes you to the Jane Austen era. I don't want to spoil too much but it's extremely funny and plot-twist after plot-twist leaves you reeling. The perfect mix between a romantic comedy and an indie flick.

We took our black lab Senna for a good walk today. He always loves running around chasing the tennis ball we throw. He was completely knackered after about a mile. The sun was shining brightly and we enjoyed our afternoon outside. I wish all weekends were like this. Have a lovely Easter, everyone.

The Weekend Post

I'm now redubbing last week's Sunday Post to a Weekend post. Because sometimes, I do something fun on Saturday as well. The boyfriend had a DJ gig on Friday night so I went out to a club for the first time in months. I think New Years was the last time I went.. As far as the knee goes it was pretty tough and I went back home right after his set was over to prevent any swelling and issues the following days.

Mike slept in on Saturday so I lounged around and started reading a new book. Emma's Table by writer Philip Galanes. I have to be quite honest and admit that I threw it into my basket because the cup cakes on the front, before I even read the back of it. The first couple of chapter seem entertaining enough. I'll report back with a full review.

Saturday night I worked a shift at the movie theater before returning back to my man waiting at home. Sadly we couldn't have Sunday morning breakfast together because he had to be at the tennis club early to start this year's competition. I'm spending my Sunday afternoon reading, watching YouTube videos and browsing Tumblr for more fun phone backgrouns. Although I do feel like breaking out into song every time I look at this one..
