Celebration Weekend Recap — Checking Out Dante Pizzeria

I hope you all had a terrific weekend!

Thursday night time time we signed the lease settlement on rental #2 and Friday morning we closed on and have develop into householders of rental #3. It’s been an insane few months spherical proper right here nonetheless it was good to formally wrap up one sooner than we started the next. We every agreed last night time time we merely can’t maintain this tempo long-term, nonetheless it’s been few months.

I moreover ran to Pottery Barn on Friday they normally had such good stuff. I can’t wait to point you tomorrow plenty of the pleasurable stuff I acquired! I’m actually way more excited regarding the stuff I bought for summer time season than the problems I bought for spring. I don’t know if it’s Italy on my ideas, by I’m all about lemons and olives this 12 months. I bought this lemon tree (it appears nothing identical to the standalone {photograph} – further identical to the styled images) and these lemon napkin rings (these look significantly increased in precise life). Have I mentioned however I’m excited for summer time season?!?

P.S. Did I level out my 60+ mom and her three school roommates are having a reunion in our yard in June? Two are my godmothers and the other is the mother of three of my very costly buddies so it’s going to be such a pleasurable time. We’re moreover frightened it would get a bit wild. For reals. Nonetheless we’re in get collectively planning course of so I’ll you need to undoubtedly maintain you posted. It’s going to be various pleasurable!

On Saturday we lastly bought a automotive for me. We actually didn’t suppose it would happen because of we’re every pretty low-cost when it comes to automobiles and we hate automotive funds (I haven’t had a “new” automotive for close to seven years). Nonetheless, we listened to all of your suggestion (thanks all quite a bit to your ideas!) and I in the long run bought a Nissan Murano. My mom has a Rogue and I drove it at Christmas and really beloved it. Nonetheless I wasn’t sure it was pretty massive sufficient for our desires. Some SUVs have been too massive, others too small, nonetheless this one felt glorious for us. Granted, it’s not going to have the power to cope with all of the issues, nonetheless it’s good for now. Mine is already filthy from the rain we’ve had nonetheless beneath is a fairly, shiny picture of the exact automotive I acquired 🙂

As quickly as that was accomplished, we headed to Fuzzy’s (as soon as extra) for lunch. We’re type of addicted and I’m glad to take heed to plenty of of you is perhaps too! Regardless that I despatched Kurtis ahead of me to the dealership to do all the negotiating, I nonetheless wished a margarita at lunch because of I hate all the automotive purchasing for course of quite a bit.

Then, we would have liked to move to Nebraska Furnishings Mart to finalize flooring for the rental and our dwelling office. Kurtis hadn’t actually seen any of my picks (other than the small samples I had at dwelling) nonetheless luckily he agreed with all of the issues I had already picked out 😉

I’m using this inspiration {photograph} from our present journey to California for the best way I would love our office flooring to be laid (if doable).

Late Saturday afternoon, I had a working a weblog event at Dante Pizzeria to preview their spring menu. I requested Kurtis to return alongside and we had such a great time!

We had been to Dante a handful of situations before now, nonetheless until you actually hear the eagerness behind the meals and the wine, it’s exhausting to truly respect all the thought that goes into every meal. Kurtis and I used to eat out quite a bit that it was a easy to take every meal without any consideration. Dante is all about using native sources and produce to create Italian meals and it is previous good.

What we beloved most is that the menu changes seasonally for the meals which could be obtainable inside the space. Since Nebraska is an actual 4 season state, which suggests all new meals nearly frequently. When Chef Nick and Adam, the Sommelier, spoke about their meals and wine, we now have been every geeking out to attempt all of the issues (and way more excited to get once more to Italy). We’re formally going to be regulars at Dante now!

This may increasingly often have been the simplest issue I’ve ever eaten. In my full life. Butterscotch Budino with Sea Salt & Caramel and Nebraskan Pecan Biscotti. I imagine everyone on the desk just about died. It was totally unreal.

On a healthful discover, I started understanding as soon as extra last week. It’s fully the worst. Nonetheless Kurtis has been so good about understanding the previous few months that it’s truly pushing me to get my crap collectively. I’ve started and stopped 30 Day Shred so many situations that I couldn’t stand to do it this time spherical (although I do understand it actually works). So, this time spherical I’m using Ripped in 30. It fully sucks too, nonetheless I wished a change. I actually really feel pretty accomplished 4 whole days in 😉

Sunday early morning we headed to Iowa with Kurtis’ sister for a last-minute journey to go to some family. 4 hours inside the automotive for two hours of visiting time, nonetheless it was successfully worth it. As soon as we acquired dwelling we had work to wrap up at rental #2 after which we headed to Lazlo’s for dinner for the second time this week because of we now have been out of groceries. Lazlo’s is so close to dwelling and has such good beer and we merely wished to complete our busy weekend with a go to.

That about wraps up our weekend. It’s nonetheless pretty unreal that April is already proper right here subsequent weekend (nonetheless I’m not complaining). I hope you all have a terrific week!
