Rainy Fall Weekends

Happy Sunday! It was a rainy, cool fall weekend here in Cleveland but we still had some fun and were even productive.  Fun and productive weekends are the best kind!

Friday night started with a game watch for out alma mater. We watched BC take on FSU AT Masthead.

Masthead has great food and beer. I tried their vegan pizza and it was so delicious! Sorry for the blurry pic- but you can see it had tofu and peppers and onions.

Saturday was a super productive day where we basically did nothing. Catch my drift? It was one of those days where it was suddenly 4 p.m. and I didn’t know what I had done with my day. We went to the hardware store, and then to the lighting store. We actually outfitted our house with lights and fans and I can’t wait until they come! We ended up buying NINE things –  5 ceiling fans, a bathroom light, a chandelier and 2 lights for our living room.

We celebrated our lighting purchase with some East Coast Custard.

We then did a trip to Target AND Whole Foods to pick up some stuff for the week.

And then it was almost dinnertime! B made us coq au vin, which was SO good and perfect for a cold, rainy day.

Sunday, FW slept in! So we started the day a little lazily with some books and pjs.

The day also included a rainy day walk with B and FW.

And then, we went to Ladies Craft Beer Society! We made different dyed fabrics – I had to leave  before they were done but I can’t wait to see how they turn out!


After family dinner, we started to finally figure out our Halloween decor. We have 3 pumpkins and some spooky lights that we need to put up tomorrow!

Some questions for you:

  • Was it a dreary, wet weekend near you too?
  • What’s a good comfort meal we should make this week?

I’m linking up with the weekly wraps!

    It is scary how fast the weekend gets away! I got very little accomplished. I did go to a play with my MIL. And yes, Saturday was extremely wet and dreary. I love Mexican Chili (topped with cheese and sour cream) this time of year. Thanks for linking!

    It was really nice here on Saturday which was god because I had a race. Sunday rained all day and I felt a bit lazy as well but I did make it to the gym so that was a win in my book.

    Coq au vin – yum! I tried to make it two weeks ago, after our trip to Montreal. It was a total fail but I love the meal when I’m not the cook.

    It rained Friday and some overnight but was moved out by Saturday morning for our long run! Chili and Taco soup is always comfort foods for me this time of the year!
