I had a great time this weekend with my dear friend. We enjoyed discovering Salado, Texas, checking out the shops and restaurants but best of all was the time spent catching up with each other.
There was a lot of laughter while we had some delicious food and coffee from this cafe. We continued the good conversation while we did a wine tasting (yum) and there was some serious shopping done too. I bought some jewelry, a cute journal and then we saw this place.
Oh yes, I bought some crafty supplies. I got some stencils, ink and papers. I found out they also have classes so one day I hope I can go back.
We also got to see a movie (well, not in Salado as that is quite a small town) but nearby. We saw The Great Gatsby which we both really enjoyed. I know I’ve read some of your posts and it seems everyone has really liked it so I was looking forward to it. It’s been a long time since I’ve read the book and after seeing the movie I wouldn’t mind reading the book again.
Anyway, fun, fun, fun. Now, to get ready for the work week. How was your weekend?
So wonderful you had such a lovely weekend with your friend! Mine was warm and humid with daily downpours and mostly relaxing. I’m disappointed I didn’t win the Powerball jackpot, I was certain I had the winning numbers!
I’ve never been to Salado, but David lives down in that area, and I’d really like to go! Looks like you all had a great time!
Oh, time spend with good friends is so good for your soul, isn’t it? And I loved Gatsby as well. The critics picked it apart, but I couldn’t find fault.
Your weekend was much more exciting than mine! 🙂 It sounds like you had a nice little getaway–always fun. I have heard good things about he Great Gatsby–and some good things by people who didn’t like the book, so it sounds quite promising!
Glad that you had fun!
I had a quiet weekend.
Stefanie – I was certain I had the winning numbers too! Think of all the books we’d buy and all the reading time we’d finally have 🙂
Andi – You have to go! I was impressed with the little shops they had and some great restaurants. Not too thrilled with the B&B where we stayed but it was a fun little place. If I go back I’d like to go during one of their Market Days which sound fun.
Sandy – So true! I went with one of my best friends who I’ve known since high school. We don’t live in the same town anymore so it’s a bit hard to be as connected but we try to get together as much as we can.
Danielle – Have you read The Great Gatsby? I can’t remember. Honestly, I can barely remember the book although I know that when I read it I was kind of lukewarm about it. I think I just “missed” a lot. That’s why I would love to re-read it now.
Isabel – I’m glad you had a nice, quiet weekend. Are you done with school?
