Favorite Pin Friday | Volume 15

Last Sunday my friend and I went to brunch at a new restaurant in The Woodlands, Del Frisco’s Grille. It’s located in the new Hughes Landing area on restaurant row. This was our first time visiting the Hughes Landing area and we had a lot of fun exploring. There are a few other recently opened restaurants there I want to visit. Del Frisco’s brunch was really good, the restaurant had a great modern vibe, and the staff was friendly. We shared a carafe of mimosas (approx. 6 glasses for $12) and ordered a different meal so we could try each others. I had my eye on the Red Velvet Belgian Waffles and she got the Southern Fried Chicken and Waffles. Both really good! Only criticism is I wish the red velvet waffles had more cream cheese icing, the little “taste” they give you isn’t enough to enjoy with each bite. The fried chicken was really crispy and had great flavor. My friend wasn’t a fan of the spicy maple syrup served with her dish though. Overall our experience was positive and I will be returning. Below are links to some red velvet waffle recipes I found on Pinterest, including one that claims to be THE Del Frisco recipe. Change it up….make a red velvet waffle đŸ™‚

Now to the Pinterest recipes…

So this is it…

In 2011 the hubs and I stumbled upon an amazing house and purchased it on the spot. By “on the spot” I mean made an offer that day and a month and a half later signed for it đŸ˜‰ Moved in right before Christmas and started making memories. The things that drew us to the house were the beautiful neighborhood, spacious backyard with mature trees, and the dark hardwood floors. I remember waking up the first morning in the house thinking how surreal it was to be 24 years old and the owner of a new gorgeous home. We watched the houses along our street be built and new neighbors move in.

 

Blessed with fantastic neighbors, we’ve celebrate holidays, birthdays, and life moments together. It’s been a heck of a ride and I’m going to miss having them so close. Now, it’s time to close this chapter and move onto the next adventure. Our first home is for sale and although it’s bittersweet to think about saying goodbye I am looking forward to what’s next for us. A glimpse at what we’ve created in the last (almost) 4 years.

If you know anyone looking to buy in The Woodlands area let them know about this house! Until next post…xoxo Becca
