Mazen and I traveled to Williamsburg with our new friend and his pilgrim dog.

We spent the holiday with his large family, who welcomed us with loving arms.

I kept the photography to a minimum but I can assure you I enjoyed plenty of cheese, ham biscuits, wine, and pumpkin pie. I went to bed that night satisfied yet not stuffed, so mission accomplished!

We had croissants with leftover ham and coffee for breakfast the next day.

And then explored colonial Williamsburg on foot.

Mazey and I had a great time, especially since there was another four-year-old who is also into Batman with us ; ) {Shirt is from GAP Kids last year.}

Back in Cville, we made this pumpkin ravioli from Plated, which we’ve been subscribing to after a friend gave us a discount code. Going to do some Blue Apron next!

On Saturday I went to a friend’s house for dinner and we had panko turbot, brussels sprouts, focaccia, and a homemade tartar sauce. Homemade pumpkin cheesecake for dessert!

    That’s my fav waffle recipe! I was sastified but not stuffed too. It’s a great feeling.
    I’m sure it’s somewhere on your page, but what oatmeal recipe did you use for that pumpkin oatmeal? It looks so fluffy!

    Just so you know, your ads are holding your page hostage before they will allow people to scroll down and read the content. I know you need to make money, but this sort of ad is the reason people install ad blockers.
    I tried to reload because I thought it had frozen, it took so long. It did it to me when I first got to your site, when I tried to open this post, and again when I thought it had frozen and tried to reload.

    If you are ever in Williamsburg on a Monday night, we’d love to have you at DoG Street Running Club! We’re a happy bunch and do a weekly 5K with food and beers afterwards. Right on DoG Street and yes, dogs are welcome!
