a relaxing sunday morning

It has been a busy few days at my household hosting a few of my nearest and dearest family members. As fun as it is when we all get together today I was feeling the exhaustion! This morning we went to Riva in Scituate Harbor for breakfast http://www.rivarestaurant.net/.




I have to say this is one of my most favorite places to eat for breakfast and for dinner, they also have a pizza/ sandwich shop in North Scituate(where I got takeout Thurs night!) We do eat here  quiet often and todays meal did not disappoint, we can always count on a good meal here. I got the eggs benedict (which is my all time fave going out to breakfast choice) it was delicious as usual, just the right amount of hollandaise sauce and the fresh rosemary that is sprinkled in the homefries makes it! With the weather getting warmer Scituate Harbor was bustling this morning and since Riva is a smaller cozy restaurant we did have to wait for a few but it was so nice out we didn't mind peeking threw a few windows of the local shops. After breakfast we strolled down the the Front Street Book Shop http://www.frontstreetbookshop.com/  where my cousin picked up a highly recommended book from the friendly staff member.  This book store is great to pop in and check out the selection that includes a little bit of everything from latest best sellers to interesting local reads. After leaving the quaint cottage esque book shop with your purchase you feel the sense of giving back and supporting local business. Books can be bought at larger chains and the internet for a bit cheaper but for me it just feels better shopping local and getting your bookworm card stamped(Front Street Book Shops rewards program) and luckily for me its just a few minutes away from home!

Sundays for me are always about taking it easy relaxing for the busy work week ahead and today I feel I accomplished just that.
