busy=happy

I am most productive and happy when my time is structured and this weekend has had a great mix of commitments and fun. I had brunch with my friends Tom and Tricia yesterday - they are both from Boston and I love listening to their accents. They have a 5 month old baby named Cavan - very Irish which I love - and we had a great time talking and eating blueberry pancakes. I made an Irish bread for the occasion using Grandma O'Shea's recipe, and it turned out very well! I ran some errands, went to the gym and was somewhat productive cleaning my apt.
This am I had another brunch at my friends Kelly and David's house. I made a cinnamon-raisen bread that also turned out well. They have two little boys who are adoreable. The oldest, Connor, taught us how to be ninja's and shared all of his cool toys.
Tonight I am going to my friends Brooke and Jeff's superbowl gathering. Jeff is an amazing cook - the last time I was there we had bacon-wrapped shrimp, home-made guac, and some other delicacies. I'm looking forward to the spread again this year. I'm bringing cupcakes. Pretty lame but I did a lot of baking this weekend and I'm worn out.
Hope everyone had a great weekend!
