Weekend Roundup: The Luck of the Irish

March 17, 2014

Sorry, I know I’m a little behind but I’ve been sick this week, so I hope you’ll cut me some slack. On to the weekend! I started my Friday with a Hummer wrap from Dellz Deli, inspired both by not being able to eat meat on Fridays during Lent and because the pictures from my review just looked so darn delicious. And it did not disappoint.

Although it never really does.

Lily and I left Charleston en route for St. Paddy’s in Atlanta and stopped in Columbia to pick up Marlowe and get some Chipotle for dinner. The whole weekend was a green, Guinness-laden blur that went by way too quickly. Saturday morning, we started with our ritual hungover breakfast at Waffle House.

I mean, really what else do you need?

For the St. Paddy’s Day feast, we each contributed something delicious: Sean made sausage balls and buffalo chicken dip, Lily and Marlowe made pigs in blankets and bought a bunch of Guinness, Raina brought Irish Cream, Jason & Kat made Devils on Horseback (aka bacond-wrapped cheese-stuffed dates), Christine supplied hummus, and I made spinach and artichoke dip (for the first time, yo!), which was pretty exciting. Then we all ate and drank way too much. It was awesome.

I know you're jealous.

We all dressed up in our finest green apparel and accessories and proceeded to play games, do Irish car bombs, laugh, and take a bunch of goofy pictures. Basically St. Patrick’s Day is my new favorite holiday.

My least favorite holiday? The Sunday after St. Patrick’s day. Although it’s made slightly better with good friends and morning snuggles.

Lily is a little overly attached to snuggling.

We had our post-St Pat’s Day hangover breakfast at a place called Jack’s New Yorker Deli in Smyrna. I got The Italian panini (salami, pepperoni, cappicola, prosciutto, provolone, red onions, oil, vinegar, and oregan) with a side of fresh cut fries, a cup of chicken enchilada soup, and a drink for just $12.70. A great deal, and one of the best italian sandwiches I’ve had in awhile. Sean got one of their signature sandwiches, and it was also delicious, so I’ll definitely be stopping here again.

That panini was legit.

So that was my weekend. How was yours?
