{weekend highlights}

Last weekend one of my best friends and Spark! contributor, Jyl, was here from Seattle. It was over 100 degrees here in the Twin Cities, but we didn't let that stop us from exploring all over the city. What did we do? Here's the highlights (oh, and please note that although it may look like all we did was eat (and we did indeed eat alot, we did take time in between to just hang out, i just didn't think it was worth noting ...) :

Saturday

ate lunch at Tavern on France
wandered around the Minneapolis Sculpture Garden
cooled off with ice cream from Sebastian Joe's
bought some goodies at Patina gift shop
dinner & drinks at Maynard's on Lake Minnetonka

Sunday

croissants for breakfast at Patrick's (the best chocolate croissants ... next to Le Panier of course)
antique shopping in Stillwater
lunch at the Freight House
dinner at Big Bowl
a bit of gambling at Mystic Lake Casino (Jyl won $600!)

Monday

sushi for lunch at Raku
dinner at Salut
shopping at Anthropologie

Tuesday

jyl hit up the Mall of America solo while i was at work
bbq at my mom's with the whole crew


we also took tons of pictures which i will surely be sharing with you in the next couple of days, but for now this will have to suffice. if anything, it will give you some thoughts on what to do if you're ever in the area!
