Last weekend I baked. It felt so good to get into my zone measuring, spatula scraping, egg cracking, and creaming butter and sugar together. And, like all things in life, there is an illusion behind this picture, it didn’t turn out as good as it looked. I used my aunt's recipe for the banana bread and Pinterest for the stylizing, and neither worked out but my house smelled wonderful!

Just know every baking project may not be a winner but it’s sure pretty to look at on the gram!

The weekend is here, praise be✨
That can only mean one of two things: 
A. what brunch spots are you waiting in line for this weekend?
B. what coffee shops are you checking off your list this weekend while braving another weekend of rain?

So tell me, friends, what lines are worth your time? 🍽: at one of my all-time favorite brunch spots in town @trinketpdx! Trust me on this spot, I am not just saying this for the gram; I have said it over and over and numerous times on my blog. I just love Trinket 💛

The Sly Man, an unusual, yet wonderful pairing of Whiskey, Honey Vinegar, and Black truffle along with Cognac, Sweet Vermouth, Sherry, and House Grenadine. This bold cocktail can be found at the #RosswoodPDX a new restaurant on the SW Waterfront next to @riversedgepdx. 
The Rosswood is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and of course, my favorite course, cocktail hour -which is all day long. 
#maxenedrinkspdx
Bollywood Theatre, one of my favorite places in Portland to get all of my senses slapped. The sights of both locations are overwhelming; so many trinkets and so many colors (my grandma would be pleased with the collection). Then the sounds, which can be heard overhead and even in the bathroom where you can even catch a Bollywood movie playing while using the loo. And, the food, the best part! The food hits every tasting note with the spicy meats with buttery rolls, the salty paneer cheese on my favorite Kati roll, and cold yet sweet mango lassi drink. @bollywoodtheaterpdx is a delicious and vibrant spot to delight all of the senses. 
#maxeneeatspdx
A beer for me. A Negroni for me. I think this is how you Happy Hour, right?

Beer and Negroni from @jacqueline.pdx, the backlit windows, those can be sourced at irregular intervals all season long in Oregon 😜

Bro, do you even lift?

Yes, yes I do, at @hem23pdx where you can leave your lifting belt at home and you might need to loosen your pant belt a notch, or two. I sure did!

Easy like Saturday mornin'...⠀
⠀
Ha, for me, that's laughable. My weekends are non-stop and are usually on the go. How on the go? let me briefly explain below:⠀
⠀
Saturday's:⠀
8a Gym for one hour. During this hour I target all of the areas I wound up missing or just didn't hit hard enough during the week. Today’s cardio 2 miles and 10 mins on the elliptical, calves, biceps, abs, and lots of stretching and headstands.⠀
⠀
9:30a Pick up my little girl from home and we go do our little weekend tradition while we head for breakfast treats and coffee. This is my favorite part of the chaos, it's my time to explore a new coffee shop and indulge in a quick breakfast sandwich or a burrito. Oh, and since I don’t want to create an illusion, I usually enjoy this all in the car ride back home or as I push her on a swing in a nearby park.⠀
⠀
10:30a Get home to put my little one down for her first nap. While Mar naps I hit the shower and make us a lunch.⠀
⠀
12:00p Wake the dragon up and give her lunch. Lunchtime is where I wonder if she really is a dragon. All of her lunch usually touches the floor, and yep, I don't waste food, I put it all back on her tray and she will eat it, eventually.... ⠀
And that is just the first half of the day, the rest I will let you piece together!⠀ -⠀
