Happy Easter!

We had a great day today at the Bunker House.! My brother, his girlfriend and their daughter came by for a light lunch and Zoe really enjoyed hunting for Easter eggs.  I hope everyone had a great day today, whether you celebrated Easter or just enjoyed a Sunday of being alive.  Because life is great, and we need to remember that.

The weather was perfect for today (dare I say "hot"?) in the 70s.

The weather was perfect for an egg hunt today (dare I say “hot”?) in the 70s.  I think it got up to 79, and although the air smelled strongly of it, most of us in town didn’t see more than a few drops of rain.

My Saturday!

I was in the cooking mood today!  Also, in the catching-up on Boss and starting Girls mood…  All of which made for a fun day!

For lunch, I sauteed a pound of ground beef with orange and red bell peppers, and – of course – onions (don’t worry, I didn’t eat it all!).  Delicious, and oh-so simple.  For dinner, I made my friend Laura’s Vegan Three-Bean Chili, but served it over broccoli slaw instead of corn chips – all the crunch with none of the guilt!

 

A few of our tulips have also started to bloom!  I wasn’t able to get great pictures, what with the sun beating down on them because I was too lazy to wait for the right light, but here’s a peek!  I’ve been seeing some of the trees around town start to bloom, so I might head over to the library tomorrow… redbuds and crabapples, oh my!
