A Long Weekend Means a Getaway

Guess what today is! It's the Friday before a long weekend! Woohoo! But first, my five for Friday.

one. open house. Andrew and I attended another open house this week at a venue I've always wanted to check out. It was gorgeous and I can't stop thinking about it. They also had a photobooth there, which we used, but the pictures came out too dark. So we took a selfie instead.
two. BeaverTail. This is definitely a Canadian thing, but there was a BeaverTail station at the open house. I was so excited! BeaverTail is basically sugar on top of heaven (it's actually fried pastry which is topped with whatever you want: sugar, nutella, chocolate...). 
three. cake. To celebrate someone's birthday this week, I had cake. I probably should have gone to the gym more often this week...
four. food. I had dinner with a friend last night at a restaurant I'm not a fan of (Pickle Barrel). The rice was actually decent though. 
 five. Misty.  I think I wore her out one day. Instead of playing with her toy, she just stared at it.


This morning, I was given a rose and a doughnut from the building I work in. I might not do Valentine's Day but it was still appreciated. Like I'm going to say no to free food. Food is the way to my heart! I also may have gone downstairs to get another doughnut. #fatass (I can't believe I just hashtagged on my blog.)

Now for the exciting news! I'm off to NYC this weekend where I'm going to see one of my favourite bloggers ever, Elizabeth! I'm so excited! More on that on Tuesday.

For now, I'm backingmyazzup to Ashanti. I can't believe she's back! She's pretty much all I listened to when I was in high school.


 
 
I'll catch up with you all on Tuesday! Have a great weekend everyone!
