Easter Feaster

Breakfast

FacebookTweetPin
5 Apr

Ben and I started the day with a leisurely breakfast. For some reason lately when it comes to meal time I cannot decide what I want to eat. I need to make a list of meal ideas so I don’t stand in the kitchen snacking while I try to figure it out.DSCN6742

After church we took a long walk. I guess Ben was in a good mood today because  he didn’t get mad that the walk was so long. I think he got distracted by natureDSCN6749

Happy Easter from Monica 🙂DSCN6750

I didn’t take pics of lunch or snacks because I was busy cleaning today. But I did stop to take a pic of the Kombucha that I scored on super sale this week. Wasn’t I just complaining about how expensive they are? The Kombucha fairy was watching me. DSCN6746

Does anyone else think that the back of some people’s knees look like sting ray faces?stingray-underbelly (source)

See… No? It’s just me? WeirdDSCN6744

My Easter Feaster – I made a fancy Easter Dinner for Ben and myself – TJ’s Dijon salmon, Pasta Roni (okay not fancy, but I actually wasn’t in the mood to cook in the first place), salad and toast. IMG_6911

We also had wine because I need to relax. And Ben says “Peace”.IMG_6914

It was a gorgeous day out! Ben and I were in such a good mood because of the amazing weather…DSCN6752

But, Ben says living in Maryland is like being in an bad relationship. Right now MD is trying to pretend that winter never happened and it’s not going to rain again or get cold. Which leads up to…

Ben’s Random Comment of the Day:

“Living in Maryland is like being married to a supermodel. It will be really great and you’ll feel so happy (like today). But then one day you’ll come home and she’ll be sitting in the dark drinking waiting to cut you (the winter).”

In other news I made a chocolate microwave cake for dessert. It’s not great, so I don’t want to share the recipe yet, but the icing was good! If you just want icing mix up agave/maple syrup and cocoa powder, just saying…IMG_6929

And the winner of the most random post award goes to me today 🙂

See you tomorrow.

    Bahaha- there were like 10 amazing quotes in that post.

    I do the same thing- stand in the kitchen for forever trying to decide what to eat. I have this thing about meals being EXACTLY what I want at the moment (same goes for picking a restaurant). It’s ridiculous and drives Brian crazy.

    That is SO true about Maryland! One day it’s pissing down rain and dark, the next is glorious and sunshine-y.
