Sunday to do's

I was whisked away Friday afternoon for a night in Boston, so that's why I didn't post anything yesterday. Mike took me to a concert, SevenDust, 3 Days Grace and Disturbed. Disturbed is one of my favorite bands. Then we spend the night at The Boxer hotel. We got up yesterday and had breakfast then walked around Haymarket Square. I bought so much produce. He paid for it so I will not be adding into my food budget. Then we walked over to the North End and got desserts from Mike's Pastry. I got a chocolate mousse cannoli and he got a sliced of carrot cake. We were going to go to my favorite restaurant, La Familia Georgio's but we were still full from breakfast. It was a great time!!

I'm hoping to post my menu later......
