We are REALLY urging spring to come out to play!! This winter has felt like one of our longest in recent years because of the countless days with gray skies and/or colder temps. People are starting to just fake spring, like going to a playground when it’s 40° and just pretending it’s 70° . Spring will arrive soon enough, I hope!
Kohr Brothers has reopened for spring, but it was hardly ice cream weather. I took Mazen and Sylvia after school and had a snowstorm – how appropriate!
We played at the park after and then had a low-key Friday night, complete with a warm bath and pizza delivery.
MY OTHER RECIPES
On Saturday, we did a lot of painting. Mazen has decided he wants to turn his bedroom into an art studio.
For a later breakfast, we had pancakes, bacon, and strawberries.
I took Mazen swimming at ACAC, where we met Matt and exchanged hands for the day. On Saturday afternoon, Thomas watched golf while I read. I’m nearing the end of Lilac Girls. I can’t stay I have loved the book (not nearly as much as The Nightingale, which I LOVED), but I’m into the story and it’s gotten better as the pages turned.
We shared a big bowl of popcorn!
I have been feeling so blah lately and living in sweatpants. It felt good to curl my hair for once and get a little dressed up on Saturday night for dinner and the UVA game.
We had dinner at Vivace and started our meal with olives and Italian bread.
We shared baked penne and the rockfish special for dinner. Both were amazing. Shout out to Chef Landon!
Some of our friends joined us for the game, which, of course, was a great win to celebrate! (“Anybody But Carolina” is my motto… But also, “Go Hoos!”)
On Sunday morning, our fridge was bare, and I made Great Harvest Cinnamon Chip toast with almond butter and banana toast.
We had a neighborhood birthday party midday and enjoyed pizza, stormtrooper cupcakes, and a Darth Vadar piñata!
Hope you guys had a great weekend! <3
I can’t wait for spring too! It seems like the whole world is just waiting for winter to be over already!

We love March in our house. I am a huge Kentucky fan (went to undergrad and grad school there) and am firmly in the “anyone but North Carolina or Duke” camp. Let the madness begin!
Haha!
Go Big Blue!!
ha ha thats an adorable pinata! I know the feeling of living in sweatpeants #thestruggleisreal
I actually didn’t feel the time change at all and woke up on regular time. didn’t know there was a time change until my boss mentioned it the other day!
You look gorgeous! Your hair is so pretty! I too am soooooo ready for spring! Just some gorgeous, sunny days with 60* would be nice.
Thank you <3
Looks like an eventful weekend!
Looks like you had a great weekend! We have had a few tastes of spring around here but then it was snowing again this morning so we still have a way to go. 😉
I flew from San Diego to Chicago on Friday, and the whole country is brown! It’s time for spring!!
When you visit Fredericksburg, you have to try Carl’s Frozen Custard, our hometown ice cream claim to fame!
