Oh Hey, Weekend
My homemade cherry Pop-Tart from Ted’s Bulletin.
Things I am excited about this weekend:
- Getting lots of sleep. (Least surprising thing ever, right?)
- Eating the homemade Pop-Tart I picked up at Ted’s Bulletin tonight. (Cherry. With sprinkles. I can hardly wait.)
- Enjoying some gorgeous weather. (Looks pretty much perfect, amirite?)
- Making my first visit to the H Street FreshFarm Market. (Yes, I’m cheating on Eastern Market.)
- Reading on my porch. (Maybe I’ll finally finish The Game after poking my way through it for eight or nine months.)
- Doing a little more gardening. (I don’t have any basil yet. Must fix that.)
Things I am nervous about this weekend:
- The Caps game. (Entirely possible that I will not be breathing at all from 7:30 -10:30 or so.)
How’s your weekend shaping up?
Pinnacle
For the last six months or so, I’ve been a little obsessed with playing Words with Friends, the smartphone version of Scrabble. I had never actually played Scrabble before taking up WWF (seems impossible, given that I’m such a word nerd, but it’s true) and as a result, I was fairly terrible in the beginning and got crushed pretty routinely. In time, however, I got a handle on the strategic part of the game – triple letters, double word score, bonus for using the full tray, etc. All of which lead me to this the other day:
I’m pretty sure I’ll never get that lucky again, but it was fun in the moment.
