Weekend Bits
Starting off the weekend right with flowers for my Mama
Belated birthday gifts from baby brother’s girlfriend in Dubai
Posing with The Most Interesting Man In the World!
Playing gigantic Jenga & Connect Four (go big or go home, as my friend emphatically says)
Then, there’s the food!
Blueberry Cream Scones, just minus the Pumpkin/Spices and sub in 1/2 c Blueberries = freshly baked goodness for breakfast (or a really late night snack…shhh)!
Kim Bap Rolls for lunch with the last bits of rice remaining
Especially delicious with lots of Kimchi and Sriracha for dipping.
Dinner: Homemade Maple Bacon Beans (in my new Cast Iron Skillet–thanks to my baby brothers) =D and Bacon Burgers to bid farewell to Summer.
I you once, I love you twice, I love you more than beans and rice,
Love,
Your Squishy Monster ^.~

Lollll gigantic Jenga! Love it
And gorgeous food all weekend I hope you had a good one
The flowers and little camels are beautiful!
I’m so excited about the tiny camels–they double as trinket boxes and I haven’t figured out what to put in the yet =D
Thanks girl, I hope yours was great!!
Ack, those miniature golden camels- I’m in love!
lol–Me and Mom are both a bit obsessed with little things so needless to say, the little silver one now lives on her dresser =D
Looks like a great weekend!
Is that a dos equis and a churro he has? That is a most interesting combo if so. –scratch that now that I’ve found my glasses looks more like a submarine sandwich.
Are camels your favorite trinket or is it anything tiny? I think my favorite has to be a wolf, if I have a spirit animal it would definitely be a wolf.
Are those hocky puck size chips for connect four o.o? It’s a little hard to guage the scale of them. The over-sized jenga looked extreemly large at first and I was curious how they were able to stack so high. From the angle, I thought they were using large planks and was stack from the floor to above the fence upon first glance. Nonetheless it’s still impressive stacking skills.
Are those rose hips I spy? Do you use them for tea or jams? I was actaully unaware that roses produced fruit until we were studying the life cycles of plants. I enjoy learning new things, if only there was a job for a professional student.
Your food looks delish!! The lack of avacado in your Kim Bap rolls is a plus in my book. I’m not really fond of the green goop unless it’s in salsa-guac form. Your scones look absolutly fabulos, I’ve only ever encounted over dry and crunchy ones. Mmmmmm; burgers and beans from the grill, add some sweet roasted corn and I’d be in nirvana. (that is if corn is still safe to eat >.<')
I hope you had a great weekend and thanks for sharing!!

Looks like it was a great weekend
Kind of wish my Mom liked flowers. Would make presents a lot easier.
She always tells me, “Why did you get me flowers? They’ll just die in a few days.” ._.
What a lovely weekend wrap up
The flowers are gorgeous, that’s awesome you get your Mom flowers so often. Lucky lady
Oh, those blueberry scones…!!! I would love to try the rice rolls too, they look so colorful!
Lovely flowers Angie! I am sure your Momma loved them. Beautiful gift!
You seem so happy and at peace in the photo( nice..) Angie.
The food looks lovely and delicious. LOVE THE SCONES!!! oooo! yum!!!
Nothing like jenga!!
You had a wonderful week end.Great! Have a lovely day Angie!
Love.
Les.
What a weekend – everything looks so cool. Those little camels are darling – I think I’ve got some envy.
love the blueberry scones… i just got back from London and I’m all about scones and anything British. Hope you are doing well!
What a lovely weekend you had – from playing gigantic Jenga and hanging out with the cardboard “most interesting man in the world!” =) Joking aside, the flowers from your mom are beautiful! And the Kim Bap rolls look so yummy and healthy! By the way, playing with the gigantic jenga (which I’ve never seen in that size before) must have been a work out to move the pieces!
What a fantastic weekend menu lineup. Those wee camels are so adorable. I would love to see Dubai…it seems we have watched so many documentaries about this city that came up out of the desert.
What a fab roundup of photos from a busy wkd. And yum on the Blueberry Cream Scones and beans!
the scones look so scrumptious….nom nom nom
and I put Sriracha on everything!! so derricious
Those commercials crack me up. So sweet to get flowers for your madre! I hope everything health wise is good! (Cookies cure everything.
What an awesome combo – maple bacon beans! I’d slab that on toast any day
What a beautiful week end!! I love your scones (and Jenga too)!!!
I don’t always pose with the most interesting man in the world, but when I do, I do it well. Good job, lol.
Oh my God… Gigantic Jenga…….. is that a “thing”? Like, is it something you can buy? Or was it made out of some wood by a friend/family member? That looks so damn awesome. I’m totally going to make this, although I feel like it would hurt a lot if the stack fell on your head
It was at a bar and it looked like they made it? In any event, it was double the fun =D
He’s my favorite =D
Thanks, Elena—I hope yours was too!!
That seems like a great idea, too!! =D
Thank you for remembering, you’re the best!
Love the stuff—I bet my veins bleed sriracha haha
My tummy thoroughly enjoyed it =D
Me too! I hear it’s very BLING and LARGE =D
I wanted to take it home but figured that it’d be too obvious to cart him away without anyone noticing =D
I am and hope you are too, my friend!
Mama had some too and now, one lives on her dresser, lol.
Thank Les! I hope your week so far has been happy + productive =D
I love sweet + savory + sweet + savory lol =D
Some days just require a fat juicy burger =D
YAY! That makes me very happy =D
LOL, it took awhile for my mama to come around too =D…I hope she enjoyed her birthday!
It definitely was =D
^.~
I think it’s a sub–I think my bf’s gf was just in Dubai and it was a popular thing there–They were pretty gigantic and therefore more exciting to play (I love over sized or teeny tiny things, lol). I adore rose hips and love to make them into candy. I hope you had a great weekend too, Paul!
I’d say both =D
Your food always makes me so hungry! =) Those Kim Bap rolls look amazing, as do the scones. YUM!
Thanks, Amy…I hope your weekend was great!
Says the gorg princess ^.^
those scones look crazy good!
Thanks ^.^
