The week that was...

This past week started and ended on very interesting notes.
Actually, it was the last weekend that started this long interesting link of events.

Last weekend, we decided to ditch the usual lunch/dinner/shopping/movie with friends for a quick trip to the hill country. We left at around 7 pm on Friday from houston to Kerrville. The lazy Satruday got interesting when we visited a cave in the woods. Sunday was a short trip to Freidricksberg where I bough an amazing Indian quilt (I have been sleeping much better since - it a jaipuri rajaaii that I have been dreaming about for a long time and finally found it... that too in a German town located in the deep interiors of Texas) and had dinner at our favorite restaurant. We headed back on sunday with a happy heart and quite head - Bliss!

On Monday, we went to a cafe where amateur artists showcase their talents - one of our friends was reading his poetry. He got a standing ovation from us (but of course), and from others in the audience. The H-town hasn't stopped amazing me yet. We got to listen to some amazing live guitar and had a yum floating ice coffee. I am thankful for such friendships that keep our mind open and expose us to new experiences.

Tuesday was my regular Zumba class at 24hourfitness. A new trainer, who was in her 50s and initially seemed too easy on us, picked up pretty fast and at the end of the hour, I was huffing my lungs out. nice!

Wednesday and Thursday were not as eventful. Friday of course was back with the bang and right after office hours, we headed straight to Bombay Pizza for a quick dinner with a few friends followed by BMG (Blue Man Group) event. Fun Fun Fun:)! The music was loud and this was our first time at Jones Hall. I have a feeling we are going to a regular there.

Saturday was totally packed with meeting a close friend of 10 years (who is leaving Hosuton for Dallas) for his kinds' birthday party. So many people in the last couple of years have left this place - we feel we constantly are losing friends. There are new relationships for sure but then no relationship is ever replaceable. No two relations have the same feel. So yes, we are going to terribly miss the two little babies they are taking with them, and we would miss not seeing them grow into Texan cowgirls any more.

Sunday morning - a nice lazy brunch at Cricket - a vegetarian place we went to the first time in Heights. A quick coffee with another couple at Antedote drew us to the end of our weekend.
