We started with the flatbread and hummus:

(Pesto, red pepper hummus, tapenade, macadamia nut hummus)

and the lump crabcakes:

crap cake

The chili-ginger sauce and pineapple salsa were an AMAZING compliment to the crab. Glorious.

Cocktail:

drink

(Vodka, club soda, splash of cranberry and a lime)

Entree:

The best maple-dijon glazed cedar-planked salmon that my face has ever seen (I ordered this last time we were at Urban Flats)

And of course, there was cake:

I had a piece and it was beautiful 😀

Next, a group of us stopped by my cousin’s friend’s house… and they have a pet duck

duck (2)

(The duck eats in its storage bin container home, and they let him walk around the house, too)

We also went to a club in downtown Orlando.

I drank water the whole time and danced my booty off. I just wanted to dance 🙂

This morning, the pilot is eating chorizo, eggs, tortillas and homemade horchata, and I think I’m going to munch a banana and some oats.

Shopping + yoga today!

Enjoy your Saturday and I’ll see ya tonight <3

  12. Heather (Heather's Dish) on July 3, 2010 at 1:35 pm

    hilarious story…my hubby had a pet duck for 2 weeks when he was younger…apparently she was noisy and poopy, so they took her to a reserve for birds and released her there. her name was sarah (?)!

  13. Kelly Michelle on July 3, 2010 at 1:38 pm

  16. Robyn @ Frugal 'n' Fit! on July 3, 2010 at 1:53 pm

    Your hubs brings out your funny side! You seem so much happier when he’s around. Funny how that can be detected just by a blog post!

    I love the little tuft of feathers on the duck’s head! I would like a duck. I wonder how my cats would feel about that L(

  17. Miranda @ MirandasJeans on July 3, 2010 at 2:11 pm

    Awesome. lol who do your cousins friends think they are Joey and Chandler? lol though I think other than the poop having a pet duck would be fun.

    I am fully and completely in love with the duck. I am obsessed with ducks – I have lots of “pet” ducks (stuffed animals and such). Yes, I am a grown woman. Just look at the little fur patch on top of his head!

  30. Ellen@FirednFabulous on July 3, 2010 at 5:28 pm
