Easter weekend recap


To continue with my previous post of being inspired in the kitchen, I made fish tacos last week - simple but delicious and somewhat healthy.


The week before Easter I made Easter yarn eggs for my lab and Tom's lab.

Onto Easter weekend.
Saturday was book club night, I was so proud of myself for reading the book. To be fair, I didn't have a valid excuse not to: my friend Kellet was kind enough to drop off her book at my place, and it was a very quick read (The Ocean at the End of the Lane by Neil Gaiman). Next month's book is Poisonous Science by HJ Forman, which I started yesterday and is just wonderful. Science, grants, and 'humorous mystery", a sure combination to get me to finish this one too.
Sunday was a relaxing day, spent at home. I had made a new flower arrangement (yes, I am now enjoying having <$10 bouquets on holidays) and of course, Easter candy. We had a lovely brunch: Tom had picked out ham steaks, I made morel mushroom cheesy scrambled eggs and we finally open our gigantic bottle of champagne. I had saved it for hair and makeup appointments for the day of the second wedding but we didn't use it then. The garden also yielded some delicious mint, which I used to make champagne mojitos.



We watched Brewer baseball and I spend some time sitting outside on the balcony. Got to enjoy these days before it gets to be scorching.
