Today was the last day I will get to see my brother for awhile. We had only great times the last 3 days.
I am thankful to have a family that is priceless
Now that we are older, getting to spend time with the dude that I grew up with all of my life is not as common as it used to be. Especially now that he has lived 400 miles away for nearly a year. However this past weekend we were able to finally get together and do a bunch of cool stuff.
My brother and I will take you on 2v2 while wearing our matching jackets any day.
Tuesday morning before our departure
We set forth for Commonwealth on Queen to have our final meal together (for the time being). In case you haven't noticed from my previous two blogs, my family LOVES food.
Once seated at our table we were left with endless options on the menu. We all decided and ordered, our waiter chose to not write any of this down for some reason despite there being 8 different dishes ordered again, we LOVE food.)
The server brought out everyone's food, including mine. Only one problem, he totally forgot to put in my main order. He told the kitchen that all I wanted was a bowl of soup and my to-go order. So I was sitting there waiting for my food to be prepared while my parents and brother feasted. Good thing I have awesome self control and was able to endure the difficult times. My soup sadly did not last very long, albeit very flavorful.
In the end everything turned out to be just fine. The food was scrumptious and we all left with a smile on our faces.
I ordered a cup of Carrot Curry Soup.
I also ordered the Tips N’ Toast Benedict, this is the order that the server put in after everyone else had their food already.
My brother and parents all three ordered the Big ol’ Breakfast Sandwich. I could hear each one of them moaning over their delicious sandwiches as I rapidly spooned my soup in anticipation for my steak tips.
My mom got a Banana Chocolate Chip Belgian Waffle.
My brother ordered the Stuffed Brioche French Toast. It was stuffed with cream cheese, coconut, and chocolate.
Lastly was my to-go order which was a Chocolate Banana Breakfast Bowl.
Sleeping on an air mattress
My bedroom was the living room while staying at my brother's, my parents took the spare bedroom. Surprisingly, the brand new air mattress in the living room was an excellent place to crash for the nights I was visiting.
My mom and I working together to use our bodyweight to deflate the air mattress quicker.
The best weekend in a long time
Arriving Saturday evening and then leaving Tuesday morning was a lot of time, but it still doesn't seem like it was long enough. Weekends like these are what encourage me to spend more time traveling, especially when it involves visiting my little bro. I hope to be able to do it again soon, preferably every couple of months at least.
