Hi friends! How are ya?

Philly is GORGEOUS <3

park

We made it in late last night (after our mild travel snafu), grabbed a cab and headed to the hotel.

The room is super clean and lovely.

+ they have a Keurig! Iโ€™ve been wanting to get one, so it will be fun to play around this weekend and see if itโ€™s a worthy investment.

[$5.50 for a bottle of Fiji, however, is not]

Of course, we ordered midnight room service. In between flights, we didnโ€™t get to grab dinner so we were starvinโ€™.

Giant Caesar salad beast for her, bacon cheeseburger for him ๐Ÿ™‚

This morning, the Pilot slept in and I went over to the HLS events. I love going to blog conferences and summits when I can- itโ€™s always fun to see old blog friends again and meet new ones ๐Ÿ™‚

After an awesome session on How to Write a Better Recipe, I came back to the hotel to get the Pilot so we could go explore the Reading Terminal Market with Gabriela.

The Pilot and I watched a โ€œHow itโ€™s madeโ€ show about pretzels a couple of weeks ago that was randomly on. Did you know 80% of the nations pretzels come from Pennsylvania? Aaaaand a fast pretzel-twister can twist 40-something pretzels per minute. Mad skillz right there.

Iโ€™m having a blasty so far ๐Ÿ™‚ Heading back to the afternoon events right now, but Iโ€™ll see ya later this afternoon with farmerโ€™s market pics <3

Hope youโ€™re enjoying your Saturday!
