Weekend Update| July 5, 2011

Did you all have a good holiday weekend? I tell you, nothing feels better than getting paid to sit on your duff for 8 hours. Well, an 8 hour massage might feel better...

We enjoyed our weekend and had company (my mom and step-dad) over for part of it. We had a great time talking and knocking around town. We're not big "July 4th people." We don't buy fire works and I try to stay away from looking like a giant American flag. I think our desserts were as patriotic as it got...and that was because lately I've been cooking up a storm with raspberries and blueberries. 

Here's our weekend in pictures...


John's homemade raspberry/blueberry muffins for Saturday morning. YUM!


Stray cats enjoying our patio.



My first try at a homemade berry tart. I didn't like it, but everyone else did...





My mom and David at Bosphorus (our favorite Turkish place) in Winter Park, FL.



Turkish Coffee.


My new favorite wine. I had at least 4 glasses this weekend (which is a lot for me.)







Did you do anything fun this holiday weekend?
