Spring Fling

this !

^^ How about that neon green spring vibe!? Our weather here has been flip flopping between April showers and May flowers. Friday was a rainy mess, Saturday morning the sun came out (above) and Sunday the rain was back! But I will take warm rain over freezing cold any day.

On Friday night Thomas’s mom offered to babysit so we could have a date night <3

We went back to Public because it’s our new favorite spot! We like sitting at the bar, but somehow we lucked out and got one of the window tables.

A plus for being earlybirds and going to dinner at 5:30: happy hour prices! Oysters are only $1.25 before 6pm.

The Big Island Pearls are our favorites. My favorites are the ones described as buttery.

We debated and debated a dinner strategy (mixed apps, mussels and sides, two entrees, one entree + app + sides) and finally settled on the big steam pot Thomas had been craving for a few visits. He was after those snow crab legs! We shared the pot plus a side of asparagus and fries. Those crab legs were goooooood!

Somehow we left the Keys without getting a really amazing slice of key lime pie. (I had one but it had a chocolate crust – no thank you!) Luckily Public’s is amazing. Super tart!

On Saturday morning I had toast with peanut butter before heading to the gym for athletic conditioning class. ‘Twas a good one!

I’ve had such fun testing out all of my products. So far I really like everything. I took some before pictures of my skin so I can compare in a few weeks/months.

Day on the left, night on the right.

Lunch was the last of our quiche from last week (with a detached crust!) and a homemade kale salad with bacon and avocado.

Birchie and I did a lot of snuggling while Thomas and Mazen went to Scott Stadium to greet the UVA bball champions!

I also did some prep for a patio party we hosted!

We had pork tacos for dinner. (I had two! Always two.)

We had a few ACAC friends over to enjoy the spring weather on the patio. Mr. B enjoyed all of the attention!


Mr. Mazen enjoyed staying up past bedtime and making a s’more. He’s wearing a headlamp, by the way. Such a great gadget for a kid.

On Sunday we did Sunday things: lazy breakfast, blog post writing, family time, lots of soccer, dinner.

    We love Public! Another great place for seafood is The Lazy Day Cafe in Ruckersville. They have seafood specials that change daily and often have 1 lb crab legs with coleslaw and hush puppies for $19.99. So delicious! The place is diner style with comfort foods and they also have great breakfasts.

      Hush puppies!! That’s quite the drive, but I’m going to keep in mind if I’m up that way and hungry : )

    Is Mazen more into soccer this year? I seem to recall you saying in that past that he didn’t enjoy the sport.

      I’m just making a joke for the trolls who freaked out over tacos years ago 🙂

    HAHA! Isn’t the most important part of this equation how many tacos SARAH had? 😉 Appreciate your sense of humor, Kath!

    Hi! I’m a long time reader but this is my first time posting to your site. I just wanted to say THANK YOU for being such an inspiration over the past few years. You truly seem to lead your life in a way that is balanced and full. You inspired me to give up obsessively controlling my diet, counting every calorie so that it could be “exercised off” later, etc. I am so much healthier and happier for it! I love your day in the life posts, recipes, home decor ideas and your RD posts. Additionally want to thank you for demonstrating to an online community that it’s possible to go through a divorce gracefully and it’s possible to move on gracefully. Keep doing you! You’re touching more people than you know!
