Busy, busy

dancerjodiIts quiet here at work today, and the commute was nice. Sometimes it sucks working for a place that never closes, but getting work done under these circumstances is always easier for me.
It was a good weekend, filled with a mix of activity.
On Friday we had a lot of fun at Xmortis (some pics, more to come - you can see me ready to feed DW some grapes here
). After an earlier rehearsal Brian and I grabbed dinner at a place in Central, India Pavilion. The food was mediocre, but I look to my left and see a high school friend of mine painted the mural inside link . Funny!
On Saturday I had yet another kick-ass ballet class, and we headed to lunch with friends at the Scotch Pine Farm in Pepperell info . Brian finally tried Haggis (as did I, I was unimpressed), and I bought a very pretty pin based on the architecture of Charles Rennie Macintosh (the Scot's version of Frank Lloyd Wright) another link . They were the best scones I've ever had and I'll definitely go back at some point! Apparently the place was first owned by an Anderson news article, about sale of the property , so it makes sense that they had a good deal of Anderson tartan stuff there (which usually is hard to find, despite it being a common name).
Saturday night brought a party with friends. Sunday brought a trip to Salem so Brian could get new boots at the Army Barracks, lunch with some 501st people, and relaxing around the house. After experimenting with cooking a homemade Indian dinner from scratch which didn't turn out bad at all (!) we finally saw Garden State, which I loved. Natalie Portman needs more opportunities to actually *act*, she's good at it (and the SW movies don't do her justice)!
Each weekend seems to get better than the next. Having free time is the most worthwhile thing in the world - its priceless!
Goals for the week: eating healthy, getting in some more workouts (in addition to dance class), ordering some spices from Penzeys to continue the cooking adventures, and working some more on Ashton's Han Solo muslin pattern.
