Yesterday was a day of non-cooking for this girl. The Good Eats Guy and I had a lunch date at Granite City! Granite City is one of my favorite places to eat! Their food is amazing and they brew their own beer! They also serve an AMAZING brunch on the weekends! I should seriously be their spokesperson!
We had the Idaho Nachos (OMG….SO GOOD!!!) with Granite City Dip,
and the Bacon and Tomato Flatbread Pizza
with a wheat beer on the side.
This was the perfect Friday afternoon! Such fun to be able to sit and chat over lunch as we never get to do this except for once in a while during the summer!
Then, last night we decided we needed some homemade popcorn and M&M’s to top off our Friday! It’s one of the girls’ favorite things to do! We watch a cartoon or movie and hang out!
Making popcorn like this always reminds me of spending the night at my grandparents’ house when I was younger! We’d always make a big batch of popcorn and hang out in their kitchen or living room!
Do you have specific food that makes you remember things from when you were younger?
I hope you guys had a fabulous Friday and have a GREAT weekend!







What a great day you had. I love the M&M’s (my favorite candy!) amidst the popcorn. Definitely going to try that!
It is sad that my husband and I have had that exact same meal at Granite City? Love that place!
What a great lunch date! Popping popcorn always reminds me of my grandma too.
I actually like to mix hot tamales with my popcorn!
Hooray for date lunches!! I had a beer at lunch yesterday too – I just can’t pass up a Sam Adams Summer Ale!
Have a safe and happy 4th!
Popcorn and M&Ms!! I haven’t done that in years. Every time I see pop-tarts, I’m immediately reminded of my childhood! Have a Happy 4th!
