Weekend Recap 1/20/14

And finally the first weekend recap of the semester is upon us! I can't wait to start these posts back up again especially since this weekend wasn't just a regular weekend it was a f-o-u-r day weekend… which is pretty much the best thing that has happened in forever. Anyways, lets start recapping...

Thursday night: My weekend started with a trip to the bowling alley with the Mount's campus activities! Free bowling with some great friends equals a great start to the weekend. It was so cool bowling along side of a bunch of mounties and I think I've finally learned how to bowl without the bumpers up… (you can hold your applause until the end).

Friday: I hung out with my favorite couple, Hannah and Matt! Besides playing rounds upon rounds of QuizUp and watching Jimmy Fallon youtube videos, we went to an amazing restaurant in Downtown Frederick. We dined at Isabella's Tapas Restaurant and Bar and I can honestly say I haven't had a meal like that in so long. Now, of course I didn't think about taking photos of all the tappas we got but I'll describe some of our favorites for y'all. For starters I think the best dish we got was goat cheese wrapped in bacon served warm over toasted bread with some onions on top. My second favorite dish was probably the crab and mozzarella stuffed yucca dumplings with a garlic aioli sauce. One really cool thing about a tapas restaurant is that its the tapas come out staggered. So, we ordered at different times and always had something to nibble on at the table. 

I don't know about you guys but I'm all about the snacking/nibbling/eating all day everyday kind of life so this style restaurant was perfect!

The one dish I did manage to get a picture of was the ice-cream sampler that we ordered to end our fine meal. Like holy cow people homemade ice-cream. The flavors we ordered are: hazelnut, candy cane (my favorite), chocolate, strawberry, banana, and apple crisp. So, if any of y'all wanna give me a pint of the candy cane or straw-bana-choco-hazel-crisp I would love you forever, and ever and I'd share. 

Saturday: was a res-life kind of day! I worked RA Interview weekend, did a few hours of homework, went to Chipotle with friends, and had rounds. So, it was kind of a boring Saturday but, it was simple too. Sometimes its just really nice to not have any major plans or to go out anywhere. 

Sunday: usually Sundays are full of sad-weekend-is-over kind of feelings, but the Mount gives us Martin Luther King Day off so Sunday was like a Saturday, which means I kind of had three Saturdays since I was off on Friday too. Anyways, the highlight of Sunday besides watching the playoff games was a break from homework to go to bingo with friends. We had a great time and it didn't even matter if no one we knew won! However, I will definitely admit that when the first two seasons of Friends got taken I was a bit enraged. I also ended Sunday night with one of my favorite comedies, Wedding Crashers so Sunday was the perfect day.

Hope you had an amazing weekend!
