I’m not sure how this week got so busy, but I’ve somehow been running behind the entire time. I have another busy day on the books, then tonight is Destination Midtown, a charity beer pairing featuring local brews and food and benefiting Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Capital Region.
Last night, we had dinner out at my mom’s — just the simple tastes of summer: fresh tomatoes and corn on the cob, straight from the garden. Can’t beat it!
My weekend plans are largely up in the air, but I like them that way. It’s looking like some friend QT as well as some beginning work on our bathroom renovation(s) — which is very exciting for us.
Don’t forget, if you need even more inspiration, tune in tomorrow morning at 7:10 a.m. to The Rock’n Roll Breakfast on The River 97.3 for “Sara’s Weekend Picks.”
