Five Things Friday



Five Things I Did:

1. Friday was Plaidurday so we donned our plaids and headed to Minneapolis for a quick getaway.

2. On Friday night we went to a baseball game. It was fan appreciation night so we got "free" hats and I was irrationally excited. Also the skyline view was stunning from the stadium. 



3. I tried this pancake shot with my breakfast on Saturday morning. Yes that is bacon and no, that is not egg yolk. It was an orange juice chaser.



4. I am going to be putting up a whole post about our trip to Minneapolis so be on the lookout for that one!

5. The local library is having a book sale today (Friday) and you know I'm going to hit that up. I'm actually really looking forward to it.

Five Things I Ate:

1. Lemon Ricotta Pancakes from Hell's Kitchen



2. Our delicious breakfast spread from The Hen House. 



3. We stopped by Sebastian Joes for a little treat. I tried the strawberry basil sorbet and it was so good. A really interesting blend of flavors. I am on a big kick of basil in my desserts recently.

4. Strawberry Rhubarb yogurt by Noosa is perfection. I am a huge fan of their yogurts - they are so creamy and I feel like the fruit flavor is not artificial at all. Another favorite by them is the pumpkin. Pick up some next time you see it, it last a delightful little snack.

5. Made a cheeseburger pasta, that really has no health value but it was easy and made lots of leftovers. Sometimes that is all I can manage.

Five Things I Read:

1. Beautiful Ruins by Jess Walter
This book was meh. I can't really think of a better way to describe it. It seemed like it should be good, but I just was not into it. It took me over a week to read it, which tells you right there that it was not very engaging. 



4. I have been loving the Hipster BBQ station on Pandora. It's been the background to my work days all week long and I don't see it stopping anytime soon.


I am linking up over at High Five for Friday with Coffee with CaitlinCup of TeaBright on a budget and Della Devoted.
