on friday i went to dinner and movie with some friends from work - we saw dallas buyers club at an independent theater near my house that sells beer. the beer was delish and the movie was really good. hard to watch at points, but so well acted and a really compelling story line.
on saturday i lazed around, baking and cleaning and doing laundry and snuggling a cat and watching christmas movies, then went to yoga, then to a christmas party with some friends from work. i made brown butter sea salt rice krispy treats from the smitten kitchen cookbook, and they were hands down the best rice krispy treats ever and were consumed quickly and with happiness by my friends at the party. i heart smitten kitchen.
today ruby started her diet (i can't deny that she's got some extra belly fat…but she is unamused by the change from 1/2 cup to 1/3 cup of food in the mornings), then i went to lunch and the symphony with some friends to see their holiday pops concert - my atlanta friends and i did this two years in a row when i lived there, and i was excited that some of my new houston friends wanted to go. tonight is dinner and the homeland finale at josh and holly's house.
it was a weekend full of friends, none of whom i had six months ago, all of whom i enjoy spending time with and feel increasingly close to. a great weekend! houston feels more and more like home.
can it just be winter break already? nope, one more week of work to go...
