Yay! It’s the weekend (another Friday Roundup!) and I’m pretty excited for this one. What a week! I landed a new job (double yay!), went to a longtable event at Rocky Mountain Flatbread on Wednesday and tonight we are attending a concert for We Are the City. Tomorrow we are going to Instameet Vancouver’s latest event and Sunday is about sleeping in, purging my closet, blogging and creating some recipes.

Did anyone watch Downton Abbey’s series finale? Happy with how things went for everyone? I want to know if Edith will keep her magazine and London life being married… And then will George and Anna’s baby be sent off to WW2 in 15 years? Things I need to know. Apparently they may have a movie special down the road. I’m cool with that as long as it is better than the Entourage one haha.

What are your plans this weekend? Is everybody else ready for Spring?

Don’t forget about Daylight Savings on Saturday night! Why do we still have this?

  1. Congrats on the new job!!! This weekend I spent Friday night curled up with my guy on the couch watching the office on netflix, we were both on the tail end of a virus going around and it was raining something awful here so it was the perfect Friday for us. Saturday I went shopping for a dress for the 53rd annual San Antonio Martini Party, it was okay. Today having some serious me time! Hope your weekend is going swell!

    I am currently on season 5 episode 9 of downtown and my mom is ready to kill me because she wants me to catch up so badly so we can watch the new season together…my panic is kicking in because i don’t know what I will do when it’s over.

    1. Leslie says:

      haha! i know i hate that feeling when you end a good show. but there are a few new ones starting up this year that i’m exciting to watch!

  3. So many good questions about Downton Abbey! I would love to see a future movie, that would be fun. You know whatever happens for Grantham and co., it will be rife with tragedy and joy and *times changing* 🙂
