Week-in-Review: Easter!

Our dear friends that moved last year came down for a visit a couple of weeks ago. We played games and had some drinks. G had so much fun playing with his besties again. It's sad to see them leave again but there are plans for the summer! We always make sure there are plans for the future, something to look forward to.

Those yummy cookies and bagons from Pokemon Go. Community day was last weekend and a local baker had made up some special cookies for the event. One of the things we love about Pokemon Go is the fun people you meet with a shared activity.

G had World Culture night as his school. Lots of people volunteered to showcase various countries from around the world. It was a fun and successful night.

Happy Easter! The Easter bunny made a visit. We colored eggs, had an Easter egg hunt, even did a walk in the rain. But alas, I did not get the primo pics for these various fun activities! So our bedheads and bunny ears will have to do. Oh and Shadow cuz she's just always cute and adorable.

I read: Magpie Murders by Anthony Horowitz and Men Explain Things to Me by Rebecca Solnit.

Listened to: Era of Ignition: Coming of Age in a Time of Rage and Revolution by Amber Tamblyn and NOS4A2 by Joe Hill.

Currently reading: My Plain Jane by Cynthia Hand, Small Spaces by Katherine Arden, Argos: The Story of Odysseus as Told by His Loyal Dog by Ralph Hardy, Black Water Rising by Attica Locke

I watched: Lots of NBA Playoffs. My team the Utah Jazz just won their first game against the Houston Rockets but it's highly unlikely they'll win the series. But that one win felt good! The TV series What We Do in the Shadows on FX is hilarious. Caught up on that one.

Movies: La Llorona, Elle, and Pet Sematary. Reviews soon...

Made: hamburgers, fried rice, crepes, mimosas! Some fun spring and summer food. It's getting warmer and warmer and I get excited.

We also finished off our edging around our flower beds and made the veggie garden box. We plan on planting this weekend!

Looking forward to: My nephew is getting married next week and his wedding dinner is Saturday. He's half Tongan so it'll be quite the party with a luau! Yummy food and dancing to finish off the evening. I'd like to pick up a fun spring dress for the event.
