Tessa and I decided to take full advantage of the girl's only weekend. Tessa still has some reading to do before school starts so she has done a lot of that. Both books are now finished and only one paper left to write. She better hurry since school starts in less than 36 hours. I worked on several projects and got a lot accomplished too! A Christmas quilt almost done and 3 digital books completed.
Friday night we enjoyed a pizza and watching a few episodes of Lark Rise to Candleford. Thanks to Aunt Tricia for introducing us to this new BBC series. We are loving it and can't wait for the next Netflix disc to get here.
Saturday we got up and headed out on a breakfast adventure. We went over to North Portland to Tasty n Sons. We beat the rush and were seated right away. When we left there were probably 40 people in line.
They are a brunch restaurant - and the food was great! Everything is served family style so we got to share!
The chocolate potato doughnuts with cream anglaise were yummy.
Tessa was sporting her cute new headband we picked up in Provo. Thinking we need to make a few of
these.
They were making one of these amazing Croquembouche and we watched them through the window - isn't it amazing!!! Cream puffs and caramel. We also purchased one french macaroon to share - it was heavenly - caramel with sea salt. Melt in your mouth. I wish we'd bought more!!
We were having a girl's dinner - a salad with fresh strawberries and oranges and a plate full of bruschetta with tomatoes fresh out of the garden - so good! We enjoyed this while watching a few more episodes of Lark Rise to Candleford.
Jim just texted from the airport - his plane is late. Glad he has a car at the airport!!!

What a fun weekend for all of you. Glad that BYU won! Thanks for sharing all your fun adventures. . . .The food you share looks divine. Wish I weren't always trying to lose that last 10 pounds. Have a great week. Hugs from WA!
