{1} Time with my husband.
Adam has been on his break for the past two weeks and we have had the absolute best time going out on date nights after my work days. I love every single minute with him!
We loved the minutes so much that I couldn’t be bothered to take out my camera most of the time. We ate some really fantastic meals over the past week and this post only has photos of three of them. Plus an Instagram shot of the best ice cream of all time –
Ice & Vice rocked our freaking faces off. We got a fantastic trio: Milk Money = toasted milk, sea salt, dark chocolate ganache; Splinters = smoked whiskey barrel wood, cracker jack brittle; 9 am = vietnamese coffee, doughnut truffle. All three were amazing (Milk Money was best) and they went together perfectly.
{2} An eggcellent meal at Egg Shop.
I got the drink special – Vodka, St. Germain, fresh lemon juice, watermelon, mint, and a prosecco float.
And we started with the poached burrata -yolk stuffed burrata cheese, crispy chickpeas, tomato agrodolce, and truffle toast. This was our first time trying burrata and it was wonderful.
For dinner I got roasted Brussel sprouts with lemon vinaigrette and two poached eggs.
This dish was so simple, just veggies with eggs, and so delicious, one of my favorite restaurant plates of all time. I was literally shoveling it into my mouth.
{3} Emily loves pizza at Pizza Loves Emily.
<– actually our meal was only ok, but the wordplay was too great to pass up. Our Modern (double sauce, mixed herbs, garlic, basil, double pecorino, onion, and Sichuan oil) was light on cheese and a little burnt.
My drink was great though.
Dune Deck – Rum, Luxardo Maraschino, lime, and spiced grenadine. I’ll love you if you stick a Luxardo cherry in my drink.
{4} Dinner at home.
I’ll pat myself on the back, this was one of the best meals of the week.
Roasted green beans and Naan from La Brea Bakery.
Scrambled eggs with shredded chicken breast and sharp cheddar.
I cooked the eggs on high heat so they were almost burnt and we loved them.
{5} Yogurt bowls for lunch.
Strawberry Fage with pumpkin o’s, pecans, blackberries, and pomegranate.
A very spring-y blackberry and lemon mix.
And then it was back to fall with pomegranate, chia seeds, pecans, and maple pumpkin seeds.
Now it’s back to work. I hope everyone has a nice week!
What’s your IG name? I’d love to follow you and your yummy escapades 🙂
@emilywax… I’m easy to spot because it’s all food and pictures of Webster!
Yayyy!
