John and I had a really fun and busy last week, and had a
very enjoyable Labor Day Weekend. Now
that we’re finally settled in our apartment, John and I were able to catch up
with a lot of friends that we hadn’t seen while in the process of moving to our
permanent apartment.
This past Wednesday we got together with our friends Caitlyn
and James. We met up at our apartment so
they could see our new digs, and then ate at an Irish pub just a few blocks
from our apartment. We had a lot of fun
catching up! On Thursday night John and
I had Jed and Jamile over for dinner at the Penthouse Penthouse. We ate a delicious dinner and shared great
conversation! Friday John and I had more
friends over (it was a very social week!), and enjoyed a relaxing night of Cards
Against Humanity and some drinks. We had
a great time with John, Heather, and Amanda.
On Saturday John and I spent a much needed relaxing day at
the beach. This past week was so busy
for me at work because tomorrow and Wednesday DT is having back-to-back events
that I’ve been planning for the past few weeks.
The beach was gorgeous, and it was surprisingly hot for San Diego
weather. When we were leaving the beach,
I was like “Oooh, I could really go for some clams right now,” and John loved
the idea, suggesting one of our favorite fish markets, Blue Water Market and
Grill. We headed over there on the way
home and bought double the amount that the associate suggested when I asked him
how much to buy for “two very hungry people” – 4 pounds. We steamed 2 lbs in water for dipping into
lemon butter, and the other half I steamed in garlic, butter, and white
wine. We whipped up some rice and a
salad to accompany our clams, and it was a delicious little feast! 
I thought this Jeep was so "California"
Mmm Sooo Good!
Sunday morning John and I went to our friend Eryka’s hot
yoga class. It was the first time either
of us had tried hot yoga, and we both ended up really enjoying it! I think I sweat more than I have in my entire
life! It was a really great time though,
such a refreshing work out! After Eryka’s
class, her and her boyfriend Nate, went out to brunch with John and I. (Nate and I work together at DT and Eryka
teaches yoga for DT twice a month). We
had a great time at brunch and tried out a new place called True Food. After Brunch, John and I headed to DT with
Nate to hang some artwork for the upcoming events. The rest of Sunday afternoon was spent
cleaning, getting stuff done, and relaxing.
Today I was able to read for several hours while John
practiced DJing, and around lunchtime we headed to the B Street Pier in
downtown San Diego to check out the sand sculpting contest. The sculptures were so cool! We had an amazing food truck lunch of duck
confit grilled cheese and truffle fries, and spent the afternoon checking out
the sculptures and walking along the harbor.
We love that we’re able to walk to so many spots around San Diego!
I’ll try and post again soon!
My afternoon <3
