Day Three Hundred Thirty-Nine: Ice Cream for Lunch on National Ice Cream Day

In my opinion, every day should be National Ice Cream Day, but today actually is, which we found out quite by accident. But we certainly weren't going to let it go uncelebrated, so we popped in to Clear River, a super cute retro ice cream parlor, to do it right. We had a late breakfast, so the ice cream ended up being lunch, which was perfectly fine with me! I tried a flavor I had never had: peach amaretto pecan. So, so good! It was the perfect end to the perfect Girls' Weekend!

Happy National Ice Cream Day!

Day Three Hundred Thirty-Eight: Harp Serenade During Dinner

This evening, we decided to dine at Rathskeller, a restaurant housed in the basement of a former hospital that was built in the 1800s. It's a beautiful stone building, and it was interesting to dine underground. (It was actually our second time to dine underground today, and we also had wine in an underground cellar. We are practically moles now! 😀) The food was great, but the entertainment was truly unique. There was a young lady playing the harp while we dined, and the music was really beautiful. I have never had a harp serenade during dinner before, and I absolutely loved it!

Day Three Hundred Thirty-Seven: Girls' Weekend in Fredericksburg

I was home for less than 36 hours when I hopped in the car and headed to Fredericksburg to meet up with my mom and my sister for our first-ever Girls' Weekend. Seriously, the three of us have not spent time alone together since my sister and I have been grown-ups! Isn't that crazy?! I love these lovely ladies, and I'm so thankful that the stars finally aligned so we could do this!
