A Porto's Brunch

Two more sleeps, two more sleeps, two more sleeps!!!! W00T! W00T!

--

It's one of those days when you cherish spending a couple hours with those closest to you. BFFs included. It's funny how as you grow older, our lives and schedules change. Trying to find the time to coordinate a time to get together can always be tricky. A constant back and forth of "are you free on ___?" or "How about on ____?" even "Can we reschedule for ____?" Oh life. But when an opportunity comes we take advantage of it to the fullest. Sometimes a simple brunch is all you need.

We headed to my/our favorite spots Porto's Bakery. When we arrived there is was shortly before the late morning/lunch rush. No lines at the cafe. Sweet!! So we order and grab ourselves a seat as we chat away and catch up from the last time we saw each other.


We both decide to order the chorizo and omelette on Cuban bread from their breakfast sandwich selection. Mmmm...yummy chorizo. That the one thing that sold me on the sandwich was the chorizo with the soft Cuban bread. Yum!!! Brought to the table warm and ate it all up. Oh...and look what she gave me as a souvenir from her recent trip to Hawaii.


A hula girl oven mitt. hehehe...


 It's sooo cute!!!! I love it!!! (Cue Hawaiian music) I'm almost afraid to even use it. hahaha... I truly have some of the bestest friends ever.
