Hello there friends and happy Monday!! This weekend was one for the books – friends, seriously amazing food & great weather…not much else needed! Here’s what we got up to…
I have to say my friends know me well, but my best friends know the way to my heart! Rachel sent me a delicious treat from Sugarfina – my favorite candy shop! Champagne & bellini flavored gummy bears – I surprised myself having not eaten them all already!
If you come to visit us, there are two things we guarantee…1. you’ll be well fed and 2. you will surely walk all those calories off!! My cousin and his wife came for a visit and we based our plans around brunch – is there any other way?!
It was our first time at Brownstone for brunch and after seeing the wait for a table a few weeks ago, we knew we had to try it!!
I had the crab cake Benedict and it was an actual crab cake with the eggs on top – it was incredible!
For as many times as they’ve come to visit us, we’ve never taken a stroll through South End – our favorite part of the city!
A quick walk over to the Esplanade where the wind almost knocked us over!
Proof that Boston is one of the most walkable cities out there!
Trying someplace new for dinner is never hard, narrowing it down is harder! I chose Empire Lounge for dinner with some friends and the food and atmosphere for dinner was wonderful!
Ice cream cake to cap off dinner!
As much as we all loved dinner, I think the lounge left something to be desired. The DJ was great, but the flow of the lounge was just too crowded…we all felt jammed and poorly thought through in the design! While we won’t go back for the “party” we’ll definitely be back for the food!
Another brunch, some quality niece and nephew time & it was finally time to relax! How was your weekend? Link up below to share! Have a great start to the week!

So glad you had such a great birthday weekend and that the weather was great! That brunch spot looks amazing! And sad to hear about the lounge part at Empire Lounge but at least the food was good! Happy Monday love! <3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes
Sheer perfection, sheer beauty in every photo and I couldn't be happier your birthday weekend was divine!!! Hope the weekend memories get this week off to a great start!!
Looks tasty! 15k steps- I hope they were comfortable shoes! Happy belated- y'all always know how to celebrate π
I'm so glad your birthday weekend was so fun! And these pictures make me want to visit Boston so bad! Happy Monday, Biana!

I always plan my days around food, doesn't everyone:) π And it totally didn't even count with all that walking you did!!! I am too old for crowded places anymore. I cant handle it! Hope you guys have a great week!!! You wanna pass some of those gummy bears over here? Hehe.

Oooh that crab cake benedict and ice cream cake are right up my alley – so glad you had a great birthday weekend!!
Happy Belated! Love great cities you can just walk all over. Do that when I visit San Fran. π californiatocarolina.com
That's it! You've convinced me that we need to book a flight and come visit immediately π ha ha! I actually just got a chatbooks in the mail yesterday and it was full of photos from our Boston trip! We had so much fun looking through it and telling Mia about our trip… Definitely missing that city right now!
I'm so glad you had a wonderful birthday weekend, you deserved it!!
Yum that crab cake eggs benedict looks amazing!! It sounds like you had an amazing weekend!

It sounds like you had the best time celebrating your birthday this weekend! I remember during our visit to Boston how much walking we did! It's so nice to work off the calories from all of the amazing food that you have there! I hope that your Monday is off to a good start!
That crab cake breakfast looks like a dream come true!!!

I think you have the best weekends of anyone I know. I love your pics as usual. I love a good walk myself but don't get them nearly often enough, especially in this weather. I am looking forward to these longer days so I can indulge in late evening walks.
What a perfect birthday weekend! Amazing weather, visitors, and all that food looks delish! Gimme all the champagne and bellini gummy bears – YUM! Cheers to a fabulous week gurlie <3

SO glad you had a wonderful birthday weekend!! Looks like a lot of fun (& lots of yummy food) with great company! π
Happy Birthday weekend! Looks like it was a fabulous one!
You look so beautiful in all of these photos!! π I totally agree with you that Boston is a walkable city. That is definitely one of the best things about it. Eggs benedict with crab is SO good!! I haven't had that since my Newport days haha. Stinks about that lounge, not a fan of that… :-/ I'm glad that you had a fun birthday weekend and I hope that you have a great day today.
Looks like such a fun birthday weekend!! That Crab Cake Benedict looks so good – I think I need to come to Boston specifically for brunch! Have a great week!
You look so gorgeous! And that food looks HEAVENLY! Never tried those gummy bears but they sound so yummy!
Looks like it was wonderful birthday weekend! I'm glad you all liked the Brownstone. They have a great brunch. Have you ever tried the brunch at the Bristol Lounge? It's super expensive but soo good. Empire is such a fun place but I totally agree about the lounge area. It's poorly designed. Hope your Monday goes well.
Looks like you had a fun weekend! Happy belated birthday!

Happy Birthday!! Looks like you had such a great time:). Boston is a walkable city, I agree. I'll be there in June for a Dental convention and I can't wait to walk it again!
So glad you had a great birthday weekend. That Benedict looks ridiculously good. And I agree, Boston is so walkable. No need for cars at all.
Why do I always notice your shoes? π I am still so sad I missed out on the sale on those pink beauties.
All that walking allows you to have all the yummies!
So glad your birthday celebration went through the weekend. Well deserved.
Happy Birthday! Looks like you had a great weekend. The Brownstone breakfast looks so good!

I was following along on Snapchat! You got a lot of steps in! Loving your pics from the weekend!
I always love walking off anything I have eaten. It is a great way to still enjoy the foods I love or want to try, while being health conscious. It gets too hot in AZ in the summer to do it but it is great weather for doing it now.
What a perfect weekend! I love walkable cities, and that is one thing that the majority of our city is not. Happy Monday, girl!
What a FUN birthday weekend!! You deserve to be celebrated βΒ so glad it was a good one!! xo

That crab cake benedict looks beyond! I love walking Boston! We try to do it once a year when we visit! It's such a gorgeous city and every neighborhood is amazing and different!
Noommmmm your brunch! And the gummy bears! You did 29 right, my friend!
I'm so glad you enjoyed your birthday weekend, beautiful! Those gummy bears sound so delicious, I would love to try them, thanks for sharing the site! I love those cute pink flats you wore as well, swoon! There's no surprise at all in knowing if anyone were to roll with you two that they'd be well fed. I concur, because every post you shared with food involved makes me wish I were there, too, haha! If I ever make my way to Boston, you're the girl I'm seeking for all the best dining for sure! Thanks so much for sharing your weekend with us and I'm glad you were able to spend your b-day weekend with close friends and family, no better way!

the way to my heart is always food haha. I love brunch! We don't really do it down here because there aren't good brunch places around, but it's the meal I love the most. But I really love dinner too, because sushi! And walking a meal off is so good! Makes me feel less bad about how much food I ate at any point in time.
You are killing it with them steps! Now that you've had the apple watch for a few more months do you still love it as much as you did before? It looks so fancy!
Happy birthday! It looks like you've had a great birthday weekend!

Looks like a great birthday weekend! Happy belated!! I love your pink loafers!!
Such a great birthday weekend! I am dying to try the champagne gummy bears – I think it will be one of my first purchases come June π
What a fun birthday weekend of celebrating! I keep meaning to tell you I found out there is a Sugarfina here, but when I was there it was closed for construction so I still haven't been able to stop in- those gummy bears sound so good! It looks like you got to see so much when your cousin came to visit– and that brunch looks delicious. I'm so glad to hear Boston is walkable– I'm going to email you soon with more questions about my trip π
I'm going to visit Boston someday, just for the food!!! The food you share always looks amazing.
