The Easter Feast is over.

[trof]

We departed a bit from the traditional.
Pork tenderloin roasted to perfection on the grill. Came packaged in a cranberry-pomegranate marinade. From Sam's.
Just grill, baste, and eat.

Spuds, asparagus (NOT cast), bullet (English) peas, salad and 4 layer lemon cake.
Yum.

70s and blues skies on the gulf coast today.
Poifeck.

And now settled in with a Scotch & soda.
The end of a perfect day.

How was your Easter?

1. Went to go see Horton hears a Who with my daughter,

just finished my Salisbury steak lean cuisine.....

Now I am going to open a new bottle of wine I bought today
a French Chardonnay by
Louis Jadot.


Sounds like you had a great day

2. Pretty excellent.

Down the street with friends.
14 of us.
I did the pork and everybody brought something.
Most gatherings here are a joint effort.
Easy and fun.

3. My dear trof!

Now, that sounds really nice!

And yummy too...

Me and my husband tend to be hermits on Easter...

We're just having a quiet day at home...

I went out to shop, and all the malls are closed!

Our dinner will be later: Roast chicken, baked potato, and steamed asparagus!

We go lightly on the desserts for dietary reasons...

Our weather is perfect too...bright blue skies, hardly any clouds, and warm!

:hi:

4. We ate around 2 p.m.

If I eat anything tonight it'll probably be a couple of tablespoons of peanut butter.

5. Today was also my 50th birthday.

I am a lucky, lucky man.

Friends treating me like royalty, sweet messages from parents, siblings, and friends.

Peace, y'all.

6. Happy Birthday!

50 is when life begins anew. Hope your year 50 on the planet goes well.

7. Happy birthday, cordelia!

:toast: :party:

And welcome to DU!

Why do you call yourself "cordelia"? Just curious....

[cordelia]

9. Thank you, and thanks for asking.

A grandmother had a friend named Cordelia. She was always nice to me when I was young, not that I saw her all that often. But I always thought Cordelia to be a beautiful name and a beautiful lady, and for some reason I thought of her the night I registered here. Wine was likely involved.

I hope after I am gone, someone will think of me for no real reason.

The real Cordelia's long gone, but she's remembered as being a good person, by me anyway, and I think those who knew her.

Funny where we draw from, isn't it?

10. Happy 50th, cordelia. I'll be joining you in August.

I'm looking forward to "middle age". Welcome to DU!:hi:

Nice and easy after planting three new roses this afternoon.
