What's everyone up to on this Saturday morning?
DH just got our weekend french press made, mmmmmmmm. I just got vanilla bean scones in the oven (jojo's recipe!). We will enjoy those, then work on a batch of sourdough bagels this morning. Want to get them all ready before we head out to a local expo this afternoon. It's focus is on local farmers, growers and producers so there will be lots of local businesses, farms and wineries there! Yay for wine samples! Even a local distillery with free whisky/gin samples - awesome! After that we will stop by one of our favorite craft beer bars in the same town, then head home. I had grand plans of bolognese and homemade pasta for dinne,r but we might just settle on the bolognese and skip the homemade pasta, depending on how long we are out and about.
Have a great day everyone!

I'm taking out family to a sushi & seafood lunch... then we're off to the DuPage Children's Museum for some kiddie fun. Afterwards, we're going into the city for some shopping. Fun day!!
Have a great day ladies!
We have to go buy baseboards from Home Depot because somehow they were never put on our original quote. I should have known something was wrong when it came in cheaper than expected.
Then, we have to paint the quarter round because it's barely primed. I also plan to slap a coat of white paint onto a mirror I sanded yesterday.
I have to go by the grocery store and get a few things.
This evening I'm working a concession stand at a basketball game with my band kids to make some money for some needed items.
I will leave from there and go to a birthday party. Drinking will ensue. I'm making parmesan pull-aparts to take to the party.

I just finished a session with my trainer. Almost passed out from not eating enough, oops.
Getting ready to fix some oatmeal, then shower. Today I will clean, meal plan, and do some grading. We need to do some laundry, too. DH is leaving for a week-long business trip Monday, so he needs to get a few things ready, too.
Hopefully we have a quiet dinner planned, but ILs wanted to eat with us last night and it didn't work out, so I'm expecting it again tonight.
I just finished getting spaghetti sauce on the stove to simmer for the day. DH and LO are at gymnastics and I am having a caramel roll and milk that DH brought me. Afterwards we are going to go to Once Upon Child, lunch, and Ikea. Then pick my Mom up at the airport.
Tonight MIL, and SIL and family are coming for dinner.

Yum, I hope you like the scones! That event sounds like a lot of fun too.
I just got back from a run, and we're going to a friend's house for lunch today. Other than that, we're just hanging around the house, doing some cleaning, and I'm hoping to do some baking.

They were great! I topped with some bourbon smoked sugar we had picked up somewhere and they were really fantastic, definitely keepers!

Well, I thought I'd start out the day by bickering with DH about making my tea or his coffee first...
I don't have any big plans today. I'll spend some time cooking, and I bought a bike last weekend that now I need to learn how to ride. I don't think my injured knees are quite up to a real weightlifting workout, so I'm going to do a body weight routine. And I want to do some sitting around and reading.

I have NO plans today and it feels amazing! This was an insane work week for both DH and I, so we are lounging on the couch with some coffee. I'm also working on our weekly menu which I sickly enjoy doing.
I want to get in a workout and we'll see some friends this afternoon/evening. Embracing this day with no set time requirements!
I am started on laundry and picked up the first floor a bit.
I'm heading out to grocery shop in a few and want to do some baking this weekend. I'm going to run on the treadmill and watch basketball later...not sure about tonight. I'll probably go meet up with DH and his friends who will probably be pretty intoxicated considering the hockey game starts at 1pm :-/
