This weekend, Summer, Yumi, Melissa and I headed up to Detroit
to spend a Girl's Weekend with Rabecca and Leighanna! We got
to see Rabecca and Julien's new place, which has a pool!! The
weather was perfect all weekend.
On the way up, we stopped at the North Market in Columbus
for lunch. I went to this little Greek place and got a falafel!
Of course, we got Jenny's Ice Cream for dessert. As usual,
it was almost impossible to decide. I went with Bananas and
Honey, since I love it, and tried two new flavors - Cucumber
Fraiche, and Avacado with Lime. Both were incredible!
When we got to Detroit, we sat by the pool for a bit, and
then had a little birthday celebration for Melissa. Rabecca
had made cupcakes - white with strawberry frosting. YUM. And
pink champahnyuh! Cheers! Then we went to Little Tree in Royal
Oak for sushi. The sushi was incredible! They had good Tom
Yum soup, also. I think Purple Chopstix's is better though.
Then we went bowling. This here country girl will never get
enough of bowling in alleys where they score for you on COMPUTERS!
And you can buy BEERS! It's just heaven.
On Saturday, we went to the Plymouth Art Fair. It's a 3 day
event, with vendors set up all through the downtown. It's HUGE!
I bought some earrings and an embroidered purse. Then I popped
into a little boutique and OOPS, bought some jeans. They were
20% off because of the art fair! After the fair, we got some
lunch and headed to the pool. Julien and his brother Blaise,
who had just arrived from France for a week in the U.S., joined
us!
Later, we made dinner. We ordered pizzas, and boiled some
fresh corn on the cob, cut up watermelon, and made a salad.
It was fresh and delicious! Then we played a fun dice game
and headed to the club, Envy, where we danced and hung out.
On Sunday we had to head home. But not before enjoying the
SECOND of Rabecca's delicious breakfast casseroles of the weekend.
On Saturday, she made a hashbrown, egg and cheese casserole,
and on Sunday it was a french toast casserole, that has ICE
CREAM in it. Ice cream for breakfast. So good. Then we drove
back to Athens! Quite a fun-filled weekend!
