Weekend - Part 2

After a delicious breakfast at Wolfgang's, my sweet husband took me to the art museum to see their special exhibit:

Diana: a Celebration

It was wonderful.

Parts of it made me cry.

 Her wedding dress, with it's 25 foot train.

The tiara, full of sparkling diamonds.

The wedding processional.

The funeral.

Her favorite dresses.

Pictures in poverty, pictures in disease...
they were pictures of beauty.

Her life seemed to be tragedy and beauty wrapped into one.

They didn't allow any pictures inside the exhibit, but I still left with many images imprinted in my memory.  Learning more about Diana left me very excited for the upcoming marriage of Kate & William.  Definitely looking forward to watching that to TV (along with millions of other people, I'm sure). 

We left the museum and watched ice skaters on the pond. 



It was one of those weekends that you're still thinking about long after it's over.

Have you had any special weekends lately?

Hasten the Springtime

He brought me flowers

To hasten the springtime

He brought me flowers

To chase away the gray

He brought me flowers

Because he knows they cast a smile

He brought me flowers

To give hope amid the rain

He brought me flowers

Knowing how I love them

That man of mine brought me roses...

Oh, he loves me so...

Weekend - Part 1

Some weekends are set aside for special things.

Treats.  Memories.  Pictures.  Laughter.

Special things.

One snowy weekend this winter, my husband took me out for a special day,  helping to break up the winter blues. 

Breakfast at Wolfgang's.  Yes, that was a treat. 

He had been there times before, but it was a first for me. 

But believe-you-me, it definitely won't be my last!

High tables.  Delicious coffee.  Happy people.  Amazing food. 

I was in love.

We shared a grilled cinnamon roll, which was different than any cinnamon roll I'd ever had.  Made fresh in their bakery, and apparently in high-demand because there was one on nearly every table around us. 

Ohhh, so good.

And although we failed to get pictures, the rest of our breakfast was absolutely delicious.  Huge, but delicious!

I hope to visit this quaint little place again sometime soon.  

You're guaranteed to leave with a big smile on your face.
