The Culinary Couple

Burgers, Brews, and Baked Goods

06.22.2010 · Posted by Wiley Wifey

Quiet weekends at home are few and far between these days. But when we do stumble upon one, we make the most of it. Here are a few highlights from our first and only free weekend in June:

Friday Night: Alfresco dining on buffalo burgers from Gearhart’s Meats, strawberries from Baronner’s Farm Market, and kolsch from Marzoni’s.

Saturday Night: As if we don’t have enough hobbies, we are now homebrewers. Our first attempt, a summer wheat, is currently brewing in our garage. Stay tuned for a full photo recap of phase 1.

Sunday Night: I baked a cake. I just can’t get enough strawberries this season, and I blame The Pioneer Woman for my most recent obsession.

How do you spend your quiet weekends?

Sidenote: I’m considering merging Wiley Wifey and The Culinary Couple. Thoughts? Any advice from WordPress wizards out there?
