Happy Sunday!
After getting an early start preppign food for the work week first thing this morning…
…I dug into breakfast – Great Harvest WW cinnamon swirl bread.
And my first mug of Fresh Market Spring Blend for 2010. Yuuummmy!
Hubby and I were busy bees in the house this weekend. We did even more house work today before I got ready for a hot date.
I tried taking a picture of the bottom of my jeans, but Bailey was all up ons .
Biker jeans with the stripey stripe.
Hellllllooooo Kelsey!
Kelsey and I met up in the artsy part of town – NoDa. I love this part of town – the local spots and artsy vibe.
We hit up Revolution Pizza so I could get a bite to eat. I meant to eat at home before heading out to meet Kelsey but I forgot. 😳
We grabbed a spot at the bar.
Since I snacked on some homemade granola bar pieces for heading out, I kept lunch light and just got the artichoke and lemon spread with flatbread.
So stellar. I loved it!
Next up, we headed to Smelly Cat, a local coffeehouse.
We had a mini photo shoot and made friends with a pretty gray pooch.
Kelsey got ice cream.
I got a tea latte – India Black Assam with soy milk. It was super foamy and tasty.
So much fun chatting it up with Kelsey ! 😀 We should do this more often!
For dinner, I had plans to make mac and cheese with the fontina hubby and I picked up at TJ’s yesterday.
I’m still trying to work out all the measurements for my Dad’s Mac and Cheese – I want to make sure I’ve got everything measured out so I can share it with you and currently, a lot of stuff is “eye-balled.”
I prepped a lot of kale tonight – 1/2 a bunch for dinner and 1/2 a bunch for later this week.
I prepped the kale for later this while dinner baked away in the oven.
Kale chips!
Golden brown fontina mac and cheese.
Dinner is served: Fontina mac and cheese, kale chips, and a Great Harvest honey WW roll, toasted with real butter.
Close-ups.
All enjoyed with some Moscato. Mmm…
Dessert – Great Harvest WW cinnamon swirl bread. So nice warmed up. Yummers!

Is NoDa the area where Cabo Fish Taco is located? I’ve been there and the Cajun restaurant down the street (can’t remember the name). It’s a really neat area of the city!
