Weekend bits - Vol 2

This weekend, we dint do much outdoors. Coming back after a vacation, we were tired and thought we would spend some quality time at home. So on friday night, We got chinese food and watched movies at home. Watching movies at home is one of our favorite things after VJ installed the home theatre with speakers on the ceiling. 
On Saturday, we did some grocery shopping at Target and Costco. Dropped in at Islands Fine burgers and drinks for lunch. I loved the ambience, had a Hawaiian theme, all colorful and food was good too. We stopped at home depot and got some plants for the patio. Cooked a south Indian dinner at home - rice, carrot sambar and potato fry…comfort food…thats what am talking about!
Sunday morning, VJ made pancakes for breakfast, we called home and friends. Later in the day, we did some gardening and organized our patio. Now that we are spending a lot of our time in the patio, we thought we would keep it nice and happy :)

Repotted the plants with new soil

VJ did 2 mini home projects this weekend,

He put up this little ledger on the hallway to the dining room so that I could put my little souvenirs I collect during our travel. 

He also connected this chinese ball light in the patio which we bought in the SFO china town. 

We made a visit to North Park Produce, a middle eastern food and produce store. Luckily, we can find some Indian stuff too and its being very convenient for us. I stocked up on yoghurt and some Indian veggies. We found this interesting fresh tandoori naan they were selling. We tried them for dinner, they were huge and I made Gobi masala to go with it for dinner. 

The huge tandoori naan!

We watched our favorite show, The next food network star and enjoyed the naan. That was a fun weekend even though we dint do much outdoors. 
So there you have it . . . a couple of days' worth of this and that. Hope your week is shaping up to be happy and productive. Stay well . . . stay cool . . . and keep reading!
