Wow, I can't believe it's August already! This year has been zipping by but I guess time flies when you're having fun although we really need to slow down the clock for getting older!
I had a pretty low key weekend which was perfect after returning home from our family vacation in Jamaica last week. Other than catching up on some sleep, my days were spent unpacking, doing tons of laundry, and getting things organized around the house.
We ventured out on Saturday night to celebrate my good friend's birthday at Tapa Toro for dinner, which is a new Spanish Tapas restaurant right below the Orlando Eye. The food was delicious and the company was even better. We stayed out for a few hours to celebrate the birthday girl and then called it a night.

On Sunday K and I made spent the morning relaxing at home and giving Lola all the attention. We missed her while on vacation.
We went out to grab some groceries and lunch and can I just say my new favorite guilty pleasure are Brie Bites. I may have to try making a baked version of these at home since I'm a huge fan of brie cheese.
That's all I have for today! I hope this week treats you well...I'm praying the heat in Florida eases up for us soon since it's been unbearably sauna-like hot. The weather was much more comfortable in Jamaica!

Sometimes it's nice to have a low key weekend especially after a trip :) Hope you have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteA tapas restaurant for a birthday is such a great idea! So glad you were able to catch up from your crazy weekends and get organized! I've never tried brie bites but i need them in my life for sure! xo, Biana -BlovedBoston

I love brie bites, I use them making those little phyllo shell things. They're not fried then at least. I add a little jam to the top and they're awesome. So simple.
ReplyDeleteAw Lola is so cute! It is always nice to have a relaxing weekend like that after vacation. Brie bites are on my list to try or make stat!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like you had a great weekend getting back into the groove! Tapas are my favorite, so I bet that you had a great time with the birthday girl at the new restaurant and getting to ride the Orlando eye! The worst part about going on vacation is missing fur children! I hope that y'all gave Lola lots of extra cuddles!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great weekend back at home! I don't know if I like brie, but those look soooo good!
ReplyDeleteFirst off, Lola is adorable!
ReplyDeleteSounds like you had a great weekend. I'm totally jealous of your Jamaica trip :)

those brie bites look amazing! you should definitely try to make those at home, and then share it so i can make them too haha. low key weekends are the best after vacation, i think we have had like 5 low key weekends in a row and it's kind of amazing.
ReplyDeleteBrie Bites sound so delicious! Hoping your heat eases up - I don't know how you guys do it - we've had a 90+ degree heatwave for the past two weeks that just finally let up and it's been so nice.
