BRUNCH AND BAKING
Saturday, for all intensive purposes, is over. It’s 8:33 p.m. and I have nothing else planned. If asked for a word to describe the day, I think I’d pick “quaint.” Before she left for Whistler, I met Amy on South Granville around noon and, after a quick peek inside Chapters, we made our way to Caffe Barney for a scrumptious brunch.
I chose the lox and cream cheese on a bagel. It was divinity. For some reason, I’ve been really, really loving salad over the last little while, and even the scraps of greens with dressing on my plate were beyond delicious.
I was bitten with the baking bug, so Amy suggested we whip up some chocolate and cinnamon flavoured zucchini muffins. I am crazy about anything cinnamon! After a quick ingredient and tulip stop at Meinhardt Fine Foods, we made our way to Amy’s apartment only to be greeted by Peanut.
We spent the remainder of the afternoon wrapped up in peppermint tea, reminiscing, girl talk, photo albums, shredded zucchini, chocolate chips, laughter, “Mellow,” YouTube and finally enjoying the fantastic muffins we made together.
Thank you for the wonderful escape today, my friend.

Ooooh Amy is a sneaky one!
“Before she left for Whistler..” (aka she never really left!) Glad that you kept Amy busy on Saturday because I was missing her on my birthday weekend. Mmmm muffins.
Yes, I am very, very sneaky, darling! I hadn’t put that “Before she left for Whistler…” bit in there, but Amy asked me to in case you saw the post before your party. I hope you had a great one
Hehehe
It looks like a lovely Saturday! It was great to see you on Friday, looking forward to seeing you again soon!
