Anniversary Weekend

La Peg

This past weekend was our 12 year anniversary. My parents generously watched the kids for the weekend. Friday night we went to a pop-up beer garden at 15th and South St. It was beautifully done by the Horticultural Society. Then we walked around the city.

Saturday after breakfast we had coffee/tea at our favorite coffee shop, Bodhi at 2nd and Front st. I love to sit in the window along the cobblestone street. They have the best jasmine tea and free coffee refills.
Then we walked to Talula's Daily on the west side of Washington Square. They have a restuarant, which is pricey, but now they have a little take-out market next door. They offer salads for $9 or cheese plates for 2 starting at $20. They give you beautiful bowls from Anthropologie and real silverware to eat with.
We went home for a few hours to relax. Plus it was raining so there wasn't a whole lot else to do!

La Peg

 Dave had made us dinner reservations at La Peg. It's a fairly new french tapas restaurant with an extensive beer menu. The food was really incredible, which went really well with a Kronenbour Blanc beer.  It's a fresh and fruity white beer, slightly bitter with hints of citrus and coriander spices. 
The atmosphere is really cool. The restaurant is in an old pumping station just behind the Race St. pier.


Sunday morning we biked down to Honey's for breakfast. Oh, how I love their food. The biscuits are so AMAZING!! It was really fun to bike there - one of the many perks to living in the city! I felt like we were a couple in a movie scene or something. Biking there made it so real, like a real date. I can't quite explain it. 
It was a really fantastic weekend. We are still so crazy about each other. I am thankful for those moments where we can remember that and have uninterrupted quality time together.
