This weekend is our first three day weekend of the year! I have been teaching for fifteen weeks without a break! So this holiday was much needed. Brody and I slept in, worked out and relaxed. It was wonderful.

On Friday, we went to the park and dinner with Alwyn and Mari.

On Saturday, I went to the feira and bought herbs for cooking!

Mint: Hortela, Rosemary:Alecrim, Pimentao, Melissa (Brazilian Mint)

These are little peppers for Brody! (I can't handle these peppers!)

Rosemary, I can't wait to use this for pasta and chicken!

I really want to find an old wooden ladder to place next to the sliding glass door to the balcony. Unfortunately, I can not leave the herbs outside because of the wind. The photo below is the look I am going for.

Wish me luck! I hope I can find one like this soon! Today, we were supposed to go hiking, but it rained all night and this morning, so we had to cancel. Oh well! Maybe we will go next week.
