What a great weekend. The weather was sunny and warm and I didn't have much that I <em>had</em> to do.

On Friday night I made dinner/nachos for my friends P. and H. It almost didn't happen because of technology. I emailed the invitation out at lunch time. I heard from P. but not from H. After school I thought: I'd call her to follow up but when I did her phone was dead/turned off. After work when I got home, my email/internet was down (ug). So I left a note on P.'s door asking her to call/contact H. if she had internet. P. was successful and H. got the message. The bigger issue is that H. still uses her yahoo email address and she didn't get my original email. P. and I teased her about this and suggested that a switch to gmail might be in order. H. just smiled at this suggestion and said she couldn't abandon yahoo because she's had this email address for 14 years. Anyhow, luckily everything worked out and she made it to dinner. There were a lot of nachos to eat.

Saturday I had a lazy morning. I made forest fruit yogurt muffins that turned out great and then in the afternoon I met a new friend L. for a drink downtown at Memento and then we went to Sun and Moon for dinner--the new branch at the little five corners. L. has just moved to Sofia for work. It was really nice to meet her and to introduce her to a couple of my favorite places.

On part of Saturday and Sunday morning, I read a book. The whole book from cover to cover. It was a quick read and most importantly it was funny but also thoughtful and insightful. It was not great literature but that's okay. I still liked <a href="http://www.amazon.com/How-Be-Woman-Caitlin-Moran/dp/0062124293" target="_blank">How to Be a Woman</a> by Caitlin Moran. Oh and because the author is British there's some really great British slang.

Then I got busy. I cleaned my apartment (and wondered why the girl who lives here couldn't be a little tidier). I did a load of laundry. I took out the garbage and watered my house plants. I went grocery shopping. I whipped up a quinoa salad for dinner and to take to school for lunch this next week. Then, I decided to make a batch of granola (because who doesn't love homemade granola?!).  While the granola was cooking, I got myself organized for the week and when the granola finally came out of the oven, I spoke to my parents on skype for an hour.

What a wonderful weekend.
