Happy St. Patrick's Day! Got your green on? Soda bread baked? Corned beef in the making? I do! I'm embracing some of my Irish roots (hello Evans, Gunning.... part of me) and having a lil Irish feast tonight! But, first, a little recap of my weekend.
It started a tad early on Friday. I managed to depart the office at a decent hour and headed for a much-needed pedicure! Yup, I read, got my toes done, ran by the grocery story and even got in a nap before heading to a Couple's Shower Fiesta for some friends of mine! We dined on fajitas, ritas and beer (ok I had wine) Fun was had by all!

Saturday, well... errr... I was supposed to head out to Greenville for the Dallas St. Patty's day festivities, but yeah let's just say between stress, the rain and tad bit of a fight we failed to make it. Instead, I worked out and veged out... all.day.long. to the tune of napping. Even these guys needed the rest.

Sunday was more resting and relaxation. I worked out and then headed out to the hitherland of Fort Worth to have lunch with some friends at Twisted Root Burgers. Its been featured on Diners' Drive-ins and Dives and was soooo good! Topped it off with some ice cream and a tummy ache. Then back to the house for some more epic napping. It was cold and dreary and the perfect day for lifetime movies and puppy naps. Then I got up to get ready for D's bday dinner. I made green beans and cherry tomatoes in a basil butter sauce. We headed to Aunt K's for pork roast (umm yum) and my beans and some good ole family time.
Needless to say, I got in much-needed rest this weekend and am ready to attack this week! Amazing what sleep does for the soul. Happy Green Beer Day all!
