Juxtaposition.

When writing art history papers in college I loved to use this word. Juxtaposition of color, of light, etc. etc. etc. It quickly was added to my list of favorite words {though second to TERROR-STRICKEN, my favorite spelling word of all time.} And it's pretty perfect to describe my previous weekends activities.

Saturday:
It started with a can of the ever elusive cherry sundrop on the way to ....
The All-Star race! I got to see "my driver" Carl...

... and lots of excellent people watching and fast cars.
 NC is the heart of NASCAR and I'm a little surprised it took me nearly 29 years to attend a race. Hubby was a fan and knew exactly what seats to buy and what race for me to attend as to not be overwhelmed. I was super skeptical Saturday morning and despite being exhausted by the end, it was a very good time. Not my typical scene, but definitely entertaining!

{Insert a record screech...wiki wiki}

Sunday was more my scene. Birthday celebration for our favorite wine shop. Wine pairings and food truck vino burgers. Nom nom nom.
Add this weekend to reason 1,458,683 why I love the state of NC. We have a little bit of everything. After all, variety is the spice of life!
