way belated weekend

Blerg! I can't believe it has taken me until Friday to post the adventures of last weekend. Between work craziness and the random onslaught of tonsilitis this week, I'm a bit behind schedule.

So, last weekend we had some wonderful company. F's friend from Germany stayed with us for the weekend. Friday we treated ze German to delicious vegetarian Thai food downtown and exposed her to the genius of 30 Rock.

Saturday after a leisurely morning, the three of us hopped on bikes and met up with some friends for an afternoon picnic in Balboa Park. Wine, cheese, salad, beer, cookies, more wine, board games, and frisbee....equals recipe for an awesome picnic.

Easter Sunday was wonderfully lazy for me. While F and ze German joined in Easter festivities, I slept in and caught up on ma' stories in the morning (aka Medium and Project Runway). Later we rode through Balboa Park to the zoo where we met up with more friends of Francis, ze Canadians. After a thorough tour of the zoo, including the mayhem of the earthquake, we headed home for some r&r and a backyard fire. It was another wonderful weekend adventure.
