A Weekend Of Firsts







Hi there... How was your weekend? I hope it was a glorious one. My weekend was good. I experienced a few "firsts." Let me explain. 

This weekend was the first time I...

- purchased and read Kinfolk magazine. The essays were written so beautifully and the photography, well, it's gorgeous. 

 - purchased a piece of jewelry from Anthropolgie. Once I tried that bib necklace on, I knew it was coming home with me.

 - made homemade ice cream. It is was so stinkin' good. I used the mug and the dipped spoons in the ice cream's photo shoot. Of course I will share it with you tomorrow...

 - cleaned out my freezer for the first time in, well, I'm too embarrassed to say. It's been a while. 

 - went on a blind date in quite some time. I was reminded of why I'm not a fan of them. 

 - visited this rotating restaurant in over 10 years. It has the best views in all of Atlanta- definitely a highlight of the blind date.

 - turned off my phone and computer after dinner on Sunday night to just read mags and totally decompress for the week. No twitter, no Instagram, no blogging and no net surfing. I think I'll be doing that more often.

 - have done a post like this. Hope ya liked it. Have a great week!

  7. I met my husband thru a blind date and have been happily married for 15 years. So, sometimes it does work. :)
    Looking forward to the homemade ice cream post.

  17. Well even if the date didn't work out at least it looks like you got wined and dined in a nice place. What a view! And I love creative posts like this - stretching the imagination a bit and reflecting at the same time. Well done. I like to "turn off" at night too - just unwind with my magazines or book - no electronics.
