*sigh* I don’t believe I’ve ever seriously used the word glorious….but that is exactly what this weekend has been. Thom and I have spent a majority of the weekend nesting–buying groceries, hanging out at the APT, and (unfortunately, for my diet) eating {I seriously fell off the wagon this weekend–hard} It has been glorious =)
We ventured out to an apple orchard today…the drive out to M-37 and 9 mile was so pretty…nice to see all that country scenery after not having driven through in so long. The orchard was so cool…I can’t remember the name…and I can’t believe I had never stopped there before, especially since I used to drive past all the time when I worked in Walker. And I forgot to take a camera…I was so bummed. The orchard was full…Thom and I walked through and picked some Galas {for Apple Crisp, which will be the absolute last sweet thing I eat this week!}
We also sampled the donuts 🙂 pumpkin glazed for me..and Thom preferred the old-fashioned. Of course we washed the apples down with some really, really good cider. MmMmmmm. Then it was off to feed the miniature goats and out to pick the apples.
On the way home we stopped at Jennie’s and then at Mel & Greg’s to introduce them to Thom and to visit for a bit….was nice to see my good friends!
We finished up the night at the Red Wok…for some fried rice and green beans {well, that’s what I ate anyway}.
So…it’s been a fun weekend…not looking forward to going back to that dreaded four-letter word tomorry-oh……w o r k *sigh* At least I have a few good hours left…I’ll try to squeeze in something fun 😉

Ohhhh…I ate too much to even write about

ETA: See that yummy-looking donut on top there? It was wolfishly devoured 2.5 seconds after this photo was taken…it never even had a chance…
