Happy no-work Monday! Three-day weekends are just the best. The weather has been fully cooperating this Memorial Day weekend in the Bay Area – it has been straight up SUMMERY around here. (And not Bay Area-style gray and gloomy summery either – real, sunny, mid-80’s summery!) I’m feelin’ like this summer is going to be the best ever, so I am ready to bring. It. On.
Helloooooo, giant tray of enormous scones that we consumed in less than 24 hours.
What can I say? This is my all-time fave scone recipe, and I’ve been craving it for, I dunno, MONTHS. I’ve had this recipe on my short list to share with you guys basically since the blog started, and I decided it’s finally time to right my scone-withholding wrongs. Because this is a weekend to celebrate!! Yesterday, my parents and I drove up to Santa Barbara and Malibu to finally (!!) look at wedding venues and guys, it was so fun! We found a place we absolutely loved, and spending a day looking for the perfect place to get married was basically the best day ever. My point is: wedding venue touring dream day deserves some celebration dark chocolate chip cream scones. And champagne!! But first, scones.
Greek street food at the Wells Street Art Festival – seconds before I took one bite, then dropped the entire plate all over my lap and the curb. It was awesome (not).
Welcome to this week’s Foodie Favorites! Last week we talked about the best BBQ in Chicago instead, so I have lots of good stuff saved up for this week. Apparently I’m really into sweets lately? Let’s roll with it.
Happy Memorial Day weekend, everyone!
What are you doing to celebrate? Our apartment’s grill area is still being renovated (major fail) so we’re cooking up some burgers and drinking beers inside with the windows open. At least there’s no UV rays?
