Happy Monday! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Don’t forget to link up to your weekend recap at the bottom of this post!
My weekend was awesome! We had some fun plans but it was also a very laid back weekend. I got to write a bunch of letters to you guys and take a nap every day. Daily naps = my hopes for heaven. Here’s what else I was up to:
Saturday morning, Hannah and I headed over to Joanna‘s to work on our April 3 Cooks 1 Kitchen recipe. It was delicious! Check back for the full post and recipe on Thursday! It was so good that Josh and I made a huge batch Sunday night so we can eat it for dinner this upcoming week.
Saturday night Josh and I had tickets aboard the Titanic! The Apollon put on an interactive dinner theatre where you either purchased first class or steerage seats aboard the Titanic. Those tickets then influenced your entire experience throughout the evening. A friend from Yelp gifted us first class tickets. Josh says he wants to go back and relive the night from a steerage perspective. We snuck back for looks at their food area and saw they got mozzarella sticks, so I’m tempted!
When we got to the event we were told to chose a table and become the character on the card in front of us. Josh was a Guggenheim heir and I was Dorothy Gibson, silent film actress. It was so cool that we got to play people who were really on the Titanic. Josh and I concocted an elaborate story where we had met and fallen in love on the Titanic and I wrote a Dear John letter to my guy back home. In the end we had to decide who made it onto the lifeboats and I lucky but Josh was not. I missed Josh so I decided to go be with him back on the ship. It felt very much like re-enacting the plot from the Titanic movie. 😉 When the play ended we got to check under our chairs to read if our character really survived the Titanic or not. Dorothy was lucky. Mr. Guggenheim was not.
Our massive vegetarian dinner. There’s a cheesy potato somewhere in there.
I want to eat this dessert over and over again. It was so good.
Overall, Josh and I had a lot of fun at the event. It was opening night, so we think they still had some kinks to work out with the acting, but our table really enjoyed ourselves. We even got to dance!
Sunday started off with a high-energy Zumba class. I think all the pain I put my legs through with barre and pilates last week is paying off! My legs felt stronger!
After Zumba I was supposed to get a pedicure with these lovely ,but had to just sit and keep them company instead. The shoes I wore on Saturday busted my feet. Like to the point I have gauze on both of my heels and little nicks and cuts all over my toes. (FYI they were 3 inch wedges….) I drew an Epsom salt bath for my feet Saturday night and it was one of the most painful experiences of my life.
Suffice it to say my toes were not in any shape to be painted. But I loved getting to hang out with these girls while they got their toes done! I’m so excited that Joanna could have her baby literally any day now! I can’t wait to meet Baby Murnan!
After pedis I came home, took a nap, hung out with Josh, and got ready for a fun, busy week to start!
Questions of the Day: What was a highlight of your weekend? Would you want to go to a theatre reenactment of the Titanic? What color do you like to paint your toenails in the Spring?
That recipe to come looks so good!! Highlight of my weekend was my 20-miler, going out with my sorority sisters last night or hiking today – so hard to choose!
Way to go on that 20 miler! That is awesome!
HIGHLIGHT?
the entire forecast was wrong and the stroms never came and we PLAYED OUTSIDE ALL WEEKEND! 🙂
Yay for beautiful weather!!
You’re totally speaking my language! Naps are my little slice of heaven, too!! Glad you had some time for that this weekend!!
I wish I could take a nap every day! haha
What a fun event to see the Titanic and be a character. My weekend was filled with sunshine and productivity; two things I love!
Sunshine is the best! And the Titanic event was so fun!
The interactive Titanic experience sounds like the coolest thing ever! I blame the movie, but I have been obsessed with the story of the Titanic ever since I was a child. Jack could have fit on that darn piece of wood, Rose!
Jack totally could have fit on that piece of wood!!!
I wish you could have gotten a pedicure with us – it gives us a good excuse to go back when your feet are healed 🙂
I need to get a pedicure stat! My feet are looking scary!
Awesome weekend indeed!
Best!

It was! It always flies by too quick!
That interactive Titanic experience does sound so cool! I’ve always been oddly interested in that whole story of the tragedy, so that’s need you could do that! You guys do fun things!
A highlight was definitely the amazing weather & park time outside as a fam!
I love good weather and fun time outside!
Wow, that dinner looks so cool! How did you find out about it?
My friend who’s in Yelp messaged me about it. It was so fun!
The Titanic dinner sounds like such a fun and different date night! The highlight of my weekend was the gorgeous weather (yay sunshine! boo allergies!).
I love good weather! I do not like good weather induced allergies though!
Yay for a fun and relaxing weekend! I’m glad to hear you made good use of the leftover ingredients from 3C1K. Yay for pesto 🙂
I’m making more pesto noodles right now! 😀
Hi Erin! Happy Monday! Thanks for hosting the link-up. You know, I went to a few interactive dinner theatre shows when I lived in Orlando and always loved that kind of night. So fun. And too bad about your feets — you deserve a pedi once they heal up. Have a great week!
I’m getting a pedi this week!
Sounds like the Titanic experience was a blast! We will have to check that out! I desperately need a pedicure, but I usually pick a wacky color in the spring – purple, blue, green, and then top it with some glitter!
Did you get to check out the Titanic experience? If so I hope you enjoyed it!
Yay for naps! Also the Titanic show sound so fun and the food looks good too! I didn’t do much this weekend but I did get some yard work down and spent lots of time with out new puppy!
Yay for new puppies!!
I’m not sure if you guys were planning too, but I think it’d be a great idea to make a 3 Cooks 1 Recipe eBook 🙂
That would be fun! I’m not sure we have enough material at the moment though.
My husband has had work in The Apollon, and Gallery 72 across the street. He also participates in the Drink and Draw class. You got some great shots!
Oh how cool!! I need to check out Gallery 72!
Oh no, sorry to her about your sore feet. That’s definitely happened to me before! All of that food looks delicious and naps are the BEST! Happy Monday!
I love naps! I wish I could take one every day!
Your weekend looks like so much fun!! Great snapshots!

All of your weekend eats look amazing! I always eat much more creative clean food on Sat and Sun than I do on Monday….especially mountains of zoodles.
