Weekend Recap!

Happy non-manic holiday Monday! This blog comes straight to you mid-afternoon from my sofa. :)

Wasn't the long weekend glorious? 

As I said in my last post, I really didn't have any formal plans this weekend...which is one reason it was so glorious. No schedules. No must-do's by a certain time, etc.

Friday, Eric and I tried out Platt College's Culinary Institute's restaurant, Foundations. We'd read about it on the Tulsa Food blog and had been wanting to try it for a couple weeks. Then, I saw Katie's post about it from last weekend and I was sold. We made a reservation the same day I read her post. :)

Guests can choose from a 3, 4, or 5 course meal with a set menu of three or four options per course. This menu isn't up to date because it changes frequently, but just check out some of the options via that link! And it's really affordable. A full 5 course meal is only $23. Wow. 

I almost forgot to mention that they also have one of the "World's Best Wine Lists" as selected by Wine Spectator. 

Who knew this was RIGHT HERE in Tulsa? You need to have some patience because it takes a little while, but it's well worth it. 

Some pics of our food. From top left clockwise: Eric's sausage appetizer, Eric's ribeye, my stuffed flank steak with white asparagus, onion, etc, creme brule, palette-cleansing sorbet of vanilla, raspberry, and champagne (YUM!)

Oh...and I got to rock my red jeans I haven't worn since winter! Bring on the fall! :)

Saturday, Eric and I headed out to our friends' house for a little TU football watch party! So glad college football is back in action! Bummed we didn't get a win, but we'll turn it around. We've got a whole season to go!

Sunday, I got to FaceTime with Lauren for the first time since she moved to London. Technology is so awesome when I'm not dropping it or breaking it. :) Talking to her made me want to visit London even more...

Annnnnd good news... It's low season to travel to Europe starting next month! That means, I can use HALF the miles I'd normally need...which means I have plenty of miles to get me to London for FREE. Well, I'll have to pay those pesky taxes and fees, but mostly for free. :)

Iamsoexcited! I've never been to Europe and I want to make this happen so badly! :)

Sunday night, I took Eric to dinner to kick off his birthday week. He turns the big three-oh on Thursday!

And today has been fabulously low key and relaxing.

Happy long weekend!
