I took myself out for a mini Paris-inspired outing last week before my photo shoot in Salt Lake. I ended up going to Hagermann's Bakehouse for lunch and a very pleasant hour of reading.
I ordered a fantastic sandwich (the Real Roast Beef I think) which had grilled bread, melted cheese, tomato, onion, cucumber and roast beef. It was perfect. We really need to be more inventive with our sandwich making skills around here, that cucumber added such a nice crunch. I had a blondie for dessert, and stayed until I finished my book. Good times.
After lunch I checked out the clearance racks at Old Navy (didn't find anything I had to have), checked the bargain shelves in Barnes and Noble hoping to find the next book in the series I'm reading, but struck out there too.
Then I did a quick limp through Target to buy dum dum suckers to stock my camera bag (prizes for kids). It was a very budget-friendly, nonexciting outing.
So while this wasn't my best Paris-inspired outing, it was still good. Why haven't I ever gone out to lunch and read before these outings? It seems like a no-brainer to me now, but that's not something I ever used to do.
