Weekend in Asheville

Visited my friend Sarah in Asheville, NC this past weekend. She is moving to
Cincinnati in just a couple weeks so I wanted to take advantage of a weekend drive's visit plus I always love going to Asheville. It was a perfect weekend away from the city.

Love the first glimpse of mountains driving in. It's like my body knows it's not in the city anymore and immediately relaxes.





When I arrived from a 4 hour drive through rain and wrecks



He was cute from a distance but mean up close



After dinner we got celebratory red velvet and black forest cupcakes - It was Sarah's last day at her job and I got a promotion at mine!



Went on a misty and cool hike in the Pisgah forest. It was weird to be outside in the middle of the day and not be drenched in sweat within 5 seconds.

















In the wild





I always have to go to Mamacitas. It's a fresh and local version of Moe's



Green Sage, one of the many cute cafes downtown and deemed the "greenest restaurant" in Ash, quite a feat for there. (bichon spotting to the right!)



My fav store in Ash, L.O.F.T. (lost objects found treasures)



I bought this



Already up





Taking in downtown from Sky Bar, a bar on a fire escape.





feta cheese + potatoes + biscuit = most unhealthy but delish salad ever from Sunny Point Cafe



Last meal there of fresh fruit, yogurt and house made granola from City Bakery



Nice
