weekends

Weekends in Calgary mean something really great...

The Calgary Farmers Market! Not only does it have some delicious Albertan (and not so Albertan) grown produce it also has Phil & Sebastian magical lattes! I like to drag R out to the market with the promise of sitting in a huge outdoor patio at the Wild Rose Brewery and drink fruity beers (his) and dark creamy stouts (mine) for an hour in the blazing sun. Oh, did I mention my absolute favourite part of the Farmers Market? Real french Macaroons! Nothing else needs to be said.

YAY FRIDAY!

Usually come May long weekend I have already made my first trip out to Wabamun Lake and got my toes wet, but this year weekends have felt rushed and lacking in heat. This weekend marked my first cottage excursion of the year and I couldn't of been more happy ! My childhood summers were spent lounging around the lake building forts and catching minnows. Now a days my time spent there always feels too short but very relaxed. R and I made the 4 hour drive on Wednesday night to catch some rays on the pier and tackle a few pages of our neglected books.

I managed to bring along my new dress I got from Forever 21 for a test drive in true prairie country fashion. It ended up being the perfect thing after a day spent in the lake and not wanting the confines of pants but needing the extra length as the evening wore on (mosquito's be dammed!)

After a few days of solitude we headed across the lake to our friend, Jeremy's place and got our sangria/fishing/tanning/dog playing time in as well. I'd say a well rounded, fun weekend was defiantly had.
