Last weekend was a treat...bliss actually. For once in what seems like forever, Erik and I treated ourselves to a weekend dedicated to ourselves! We woke up bright and early on Saturday morning and dined on the most amazing breakfast at Mother's Bistro and Bar, a hot spot in the inner city of Portland, known for fine baked goods and undeniably excellent French toast. We sipped on French pressed coffee, basked in the streaming window light, and most of all just enjoyed each other's company. We followed our beloved meal with a trip to the Portland Art Museum, one of my favorite places in Portland. We soaked up the beauty of works by masters such as Roy Lichtenstein, Berenice Abbott, Andy Warhol, and many other greats. I love going to art museums with Erik...his engineering background provides a whole new level of appreciation for art. I'm always so intrigued by his interpretation of each piece. The very best part of the day, though, was the two of us coming home, making tea, and curling up on the couch with our books. It was a great day!
