SweetBerries Love Affair

After work today, Ryan, Sadie and I piled into his car for a weekend trip to Sarasota to visit Ryan’s family.

Packed Up!

We made great time and walked into a house that smelled delicious!

Within 10 minutes of arriving we sat down to a delicious dinner of salmon, orzo pasta, spinach and watermelon.

My Plate

I enjoyed a bit of everything (I added the orzo to my plate once I finished the salmon) and seriously dominated the watermelon. My belly was stuffed! I think I reserved myself watermelon 4+ times. Love it!

Dessert

After hanging out in the backyard for an hour or so, we were ready for dessert. We had to take a trip to SweetBerries, a local restaurant that serves the best frozen custard.

SweetBerries

Every time Ryan and I come to Sarasota we have to make a trip to SweetBerries. It’s a delicious little gem! We may or may not be in love with it. 😉

I ordered a small Hawaiian custard that included pineapple, banana and lots of sweetened coconut.

Hawaiian Custard

We are in desperate need of a frozen custard place in Orlando. This stuff is so thick and creamy. It’s ridiculously delicious.

I’m off to hang out with the gang before hittin’ the hay. I have an early-morning run planned with my friend Merri so I hope to be in bed by 11 p.m. tonight!

See ya in the mornin’!
