Aww that’s super sweet of you Brenda!

I had brunch with friends who were staying with me for the night, then drove them to the airport. Took the dog to the park and have done zero else. Will probably drag myself to the store eventually but the real question is will I buy ingredients for anything or just the things on my list? I was tempted to make this ricotta pie until I saw that even at 1/8 of a pie it was over 500 calories per slice! And living alone id eat all of it. So…maybe not.

I changed the sheets and then rode the bike, making it 8 weeks in a row of biking 5x a week (95% of the times biking 30 minutes or longer). My reward is going to be Nepalese food for dinner and watching Winter Soldier.

Did pedi, lunch was really great, ran errands for husband (who is obsessed with In the Heights today, which, forgive me, I love LMM, but it just isn't my beautiful cake, which I don't quite understand, and yet is true) -- then ran a second errand for him.

Then we ordered Chinese food, and I'm not actually hungry, so I guess I have food for tomorrow. No complaints.

I think I'm going to go to Easter services tomorrow at the church I used to go to when I did that sort of thing -- really great place and people, and Easter music is my favorite, atheism notwithstanding, and they're celebrating the completion of the new mixed use building that went up on the land where the old church used to be. So that should be neat.

Ah, bless! He's playing Hamilton now... which is my beautiful cake.

Then I think we're going back to watching House.

My new beautiful cake is Cowboy Carter, which I am obsessed with.

Corpse Revivers sounds like an excellent plan to me.

Sadly, other people are driving here and back again, so.

Right the fuck on!

I did my run (very belatedly) and did manage to do the dishes. Matilda has been hanging out in the garden apartment with friends all day, first Malia and now Iris.

My gut feeling is this is going to be a very Zeitgeist defining album, like Thriller.

I don't really have any beautiful cake right now. My desktop computer went down and while my music is on a separate hard drive that's effectively stopped me from my usual musical explorations. I really need to get that up and running again, because I feel the lack.

I keep saving movies to watch with Matilda but she's never available for a whole movie so everything from Wonka to Poor Things remain unwatched. But we have been enjoying Harley Quinn and before that Hasbin Hotel (highly recommend) and My Adventures With Superman (animated - also a big recommend).

There are also these shows that I watched with Jacqueline that I haven't watched the new seasons of, including What We Do in the Shadows and Our Flag Means Death.

We're supposed to have nothing but sunshine next week so I'm hoping we make a lot of progress on the decorative painting on the back stairs.

Nice! I’ve been working with the exercise bike (interior, stationary), but today I took my road bike out. It’s so much more fun! There’s about two blocks downhill to my home where I can just glide—it makes me feel like I’m 10 again, except no one can make me eat liver and onions.

I have not worked out today. But I feel like I ought to. I got up at a decent hour, went and picked up some fancy pastries I had pre-ordered (rhubarb honey croissant, garlic leek chili crisp croissant, guava cheese, and a strawberry cronut) and my friend and her two year old came over and we walked to the playground a block away, and her kiddo loooooved walking the dog and would not let go of the leash (the dog was well behaved but not convinced this was a good plan).

Timelies all!

This weekend has not been very productive. Gary's been trying to replace the faucet from the sink in our bathroom, with not much luck. We'll have to call in the plumbers and use the sink in Mr. S's bathroom until that's done.(Doesn't help that whoever installed the sink did so badly)

I was sad face over the Easter bunny skipping me so DH brought me home Keto ice cream bars. Whee!
