Our Weekend

Saturday morning we went downtown Raleigh to check out The Handmade Market, a market full of great artists and their handy-work.  There was everything from jewelry, food, art, custom office supplies, live DJ.  There were probably about 40 vendors total, perfect without being overwhelming. 

Look what I had to resist as we walked up

She had the cutest onesies and stockings 

My cousin loves PBR, I immediately thought of her when I saw this print.

Of course we would get another koozie, "919 y'all"

We also purchased some specialty concentrate coffee that was delicious!

We had brunch at Remedy Diner while we were downtown and I have to say I LOVED it.  The place has character to it, good food, and one of the best bloody mary's I've ever had!

Celery and Olives with my bloody mary... heaven.

Saturday night we had dinner at Maggiano's with some of our friends.  I want everyone to know that I went there and did not order pasta!  I'm very proud of that!  I must say that I haven't been impressed with Maggiano's the past few times we have been, the food is so-so, the service is sub par, and the fact that it's just so crowded doesn't make me want to return anytime soon.  If our friend had not made a reservation we would've had to wait THREE hours?!  No thank you.

I only had 1/2 of a piece of bread.

I snook the new Sur la Table at Southpoint before dinner, it's so pretty in there!!!  There is floor to ceiling nothing but kitchen stuff.  I only got to briefly go in, but I fell in love with this ornament...but at $15 it stayed there.

Deviled Egg Ornament.

It was gorgeous here this weekend, the sun was out and it was in the 70's, I would take this weather every day of the year!!
