Obviously this is how most of our Friday nights go!!
My favorite weekends are those spent exploring the city - we've lived in Boston for over four years, but still haven't seen everything!! We went to the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum and it's basically everything she collected throughout her life. You weren't allowed to take photos in the museum, but obviously I didn't know that and got my few photos of the beautiful garden.
In 1990, one of the most prolific heists from a museum took place when two thieves dressed as Boston Police Officers managed to steal 13 pieces of art that have never been recovered!!
It definitely inspired us to watch The Thomas Crown Affair on Saturday night!!
Paul Revere's house is in the North End and it's open to tour (something we still haven't done) but it's there!
We walked a ton on Sunday and it was hard not to want to be outside when it was 55 and sunny!! Trust me - it's like summer to us now haha! There is a downtown harbor walk that is about 1.5 miles and you can really take in all the sights of the harbor.
I attempted the cheddar biscuits from The Newlywed cookbook - honestly…I feel like they were missing something or I was expecting to have the cheddar bay biscuits from Red Lobster but they weren't as yummy as expected!
I mentioned last week needing a better storage option for my nail polishes. I found a good solution from Bed Bath & Beyond and got this bin for $2.99. It's clear like I wanted and a perfect fix!
My quotes for the week!

Thanks for sharing your Boston finds. I would love to visit someday!
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had an amazing weekend! I'm definitely going to have to check out that museum when I come up there! Your biscuits may have tasted like there was something missing but they look amazing! Loving those quotes too, especially the last one! :)

I need to reel in my polish and nail accessories - I may have to go get a bin like that today. What an easy way to organize :) You had a fun weekend!
ReplyDeleteI definitely need to make it to Boston at some point. I'm a history major, and sadly have never been to explore all the awesome historical spots there! Looks like a great weekend girl! xo
ReplyDeleteBoston is such an amazing city especially when the weather is cooperating and not snowing ;-) Those biscuits look so good! Bummer they didn't taste as good. I think I have pinned somewhere the Red Lobster ones I'll try to dig it up for you! xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteThe weekends do go by so fast now! The older I get, the faster time seems to fly by.
ReplyDeleteThose biscuits LOOK AMAZING! I'm going to boston for the first time in August - I'm excited!
ReplyDeleteLooks like such a fabulous weekend! (Jealous!) I can't remember the last time I had good sushi (or the last time I saw that movie haha) xoxo
ReplyDeleteI love the Thomas Crown Affair such a good movie! And I'm loving that Chanel quote, good find
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a fun weekend! Boston is on my hubby and mine's list of top places to visit in the U.S. in the next few years - it looks like such an awesome city. And, I love the Thomas Crown Affair!
ReplyDeleteThat museum garden is absolutely gorgeous! I would love to go there. Isn't it fun to explore your own city. There's always so much to do. I do the same. The weekends do go by fast. As we get older there's more to do! Lol
ReplyDeleteOmg I'm totally with you on the whole weekends flying by! I hate that! Boston is one of the places the hubs and I are thinking about visiting for out anniversary! I've only been when I was young! If we go well definitely have to go to that museum!

I know. Where do the weekends go? Yet the weeks last forever. I put my nail polish in a similar bin. It's soo much easier than the bag I used before! Your weekend looked wonderful and now I'm craving sushi!
ReplyDeleteMy weekend flew, I hate that. Gorgeous pics! I make an amazing cheddar garlic biscuit, it's one of our favorite things ever. I just wish they were healthy ;)
ReplyDeletesounds like a fabulous weekend - i feel like every weekend flies by, and i wish it were longer!
ReplyDeleteWeekends fly by for sure girl! Have y'all gone whale watching?! We went a couple of summers ago when Spyros lived in Boston and it was awesome! But definitely go when it's warm! :) Xx.
ReplyDeleteGreat place dear :D

You little rule breaker, you! There is so many things to see in Boston I really need to get to the city more.
ReplyDeleteall the best weekends start with sushi, just sayin'
ReplyDeleteThere's so much of Austin that we have yet to see too. It's always fun being a tourist in your own city. :-)
ReplyDeleteThat museum looks so pretty. Sounds like a great weekend! We had similar weather and I didn't want to be inside at all. :)
ReplyDeleteIt's such a different type of museum - each room is a different era of her life almost!! And the garden is most definitely the focal point!!
DeleteI am loving the quotes for the week-- so nice to start off with some inspiration :) One of the best things about living in a city that's kind of a vacation destination (not sure if that's the proper wording, but hopefully you know what I mean), is that there is always SO much to do and see! Those gardens looks so beautiful! And yay for new nail polish storage!
ReplyDeleteThat sushi looks amazing!! i haven't been to Boston since I was a kid, but now i feel like i need to go back. Glad you had a nice weekend!
ReplyDeleteoh yum, I have a weakness for sushi! I can't wait to visit Boston. It's on my bucket list!
ReplyDeleteGirllll, you may have thought that those cheddar biscuits were missing something, but I swear, they sure looked yummy in the picture!!
ReplyDeleteLove quotes from Coco! Smart woman huh?!
ReplyDeleteI've always wanted to visit Boston. So much history there! Looks like you had a productive and fun weekend!
ReplyDeletemmmm those biscuits looks so good! sounds like you had a great weekend! i need to visit boston again soon, it's such a pretty city. xo jillian - cornflake dreams
ReplyDeleteLooks like a fab weekend! I want sushi now...and biscuits...maybe just food in general!
ReplyDeletexo
Those gardens are sooo pretty! That is really crazy about that heist! You guys get to see some pretty awesome stuff around your neck of the woods! Love it!
ReplyDeleteI would be ALL over those biscuits, girl!!!!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWeekends DO seem to go by so much faster now. Maybe because we're busier? Blah to adulthood!
I love being a tourist in your own town! I'm dying to go to Boston. My husband has been and even years later he talks about how awesome it is! Sad to hear those biscuits didn't turn out great! They look delicious!
