Weekend Things: Welcome to October

Lauren3 Comments

I did everything and nothing this weekend.

And what I mean by that is that I slept lots, watched so so many hours of TV and probably spent too much time on Instagram, but I also drank coffee, cooked delicious things, ran 10 miles, went to the grocery, had a pizza date night, cleaned the house and went on a fall-time walk so I could peep those changing leaves.  That seems like a lot of stuff to me!  For the record, I’m totally fine with it feeling like there’s a million hours in the weekend to do everything your heart desires.

We started Friday with real Pumpkin Spice Lattes.  Or I did at least.  Downpours makes pumpkin spice syrup with actual pumpkin and after totally missing my PSL window last year, I knew I had to get my hands on this magic ASAP.  Turns out they’ve renovated and redecorated in there and it’s a huge improvement.  Plus that latte was pretty good.  I’m gonna go back, for sure.  P.S. We also ate giant breakfast burritos and that’s something I need to do more often.

I follow Denver Beer Co. on Insta and they announced the tapping of a fresh-hop beer so we raced over after work to pick up a growler.  I read all about fresh-hop beer last year but I guess there’s only a short window of time when it can be made and I really didn’t want to miss out.  Their taproom was insanely busy!  But we eventually got our growler and basically ran out of there.  I’ll be honest, it tastes a little flat.Read More »

Got bit by the happy hour bug.  And the only real cure is Root Down.

Realized the struggle to stay up late on a Friday night is real.  Especially when you just ate a bunch of delicious food and washed it down with a Paloma.

Woke up feeling refreshed on Saturday morning.  Maybe going to bed early on Friday wasn’t such a bad idea after all.

Went on an early morning run and met Joey at our coffee shop for breakfast.  Toast with almond butter and lavender honey, for the win!

Spent the rest of the day with my mom!  Massage, pizza lunch date, Pampered Chef party, and the most beautiful weather.

Came home to find Joey “skunk-proofing” our house.  Don’t even get me started with those skunks.

Watched Heathers.  Um how cool/weird/80’s/cult classic-y is that movie?!  “Greetings and salutations.”

Accidentally slept in on Sunday.  Good thing we had nowhere to be and nothing to do.

Made pancakes.  Viva la Pancake Sunday!  Oh and we bought coffee beans on Saturday that Joey brewed while I pancaked.

Went for a run/picnic at Cheesman.  We found Jenn there!

Got told we are “such a married couple!”  I kinda liked it 🙂

Sat on our porch and read.  I am so sucked into We Were Liars.

Made Shepherd’s Pie for dinner.  We had planned on going to my parents’ for corned beef but decided to do our St. Patrick’s Day celebrating on Tuesday instead.

Happy Monday!  What did you do this weekend?
