What's got two thumbs and spent 31 hours in the city of brotherly love this weeknd?
That's right.
I headed to Philadelphia for the lovely wedding of my dear college roommate, Julie.
Landing at 5:30am does have one advantage: you have no choice but to adventure out into the city.
My pal Tania and I headed over to Reading Terminal Market, an amazing collection of lunch counters, farm stands and any kind of sweet you can imagine.
We scored the most delicious Amish breakfasts.
And spent some time wandering around all the deliciousness.
Tiny jams!
Pumpkin whoopie pies.
I saved mine and it is sitting in the fridge awaitng my lunchtime consumption.
5 lbs of lollipop!
Beautiful chocolates.....
...and some strange ones, too.
It was a wonderful reunion weekend of sorts, but with only 8 hours of sleep in two days, I'm kinda paying for it now....
Stay tuned for further photos of my Philly adventures.
{ how was your weekend? }

my weekend flew by WAY too fast!! work was such a drag today, and i was all tired because i stayed up late watching sister wives (addicting because it's so CRAZY you have to watch!), and because it's monday already. boo.
also, i'm excited for more pictures, so i can continue to live vicariously through you! ha ha ha
Sounds like a fun time! YUM pumpkin whoopie pie- how was it? (I'm sure it was amazing). Can't wait to hear about the rest of your trip! Hope you catch up on your sleep :)

Looks like you had so much fun! The honey and chocolates look delicious...not so sure about the lungs though?
