WEEKEND WONDERFUL
From Sara's Newfie-Mexican Night to scary adventures in Truro, to PJ parties at Jo's, to Sunday Jiggs Dinner, it really was one of the best weekends I've had in a very long time. I won't go about regurgitating our Friday and Saturday night adventures as you can see all the pictures and read a perfectly "glamorous" summary by clicking here. Instead I'll tell you about the very enjoyable and productive Sunday I had ...
Peter woke me up just before noon with scrambled eggs and pancakes and shortly after we started in on cleaning the entire apartment. Later in the afternoon we jumped in the car and headed to Sobeys for some grocery shopping (love you car, love you Sunday shopping). Afterwards I dropped Peter off at the apartment to start on dinner while I went to the Rubber Duck to clean the mud left in & on my car from our fun but messy adventure to the Haunted Corn Maze in Truro. I think Polly really enjoyed her first car wash ... I know I did :-)
Later, Andrew and Sara came over for Jiggs Dinner. We were complete gluttons as we filled our plates with mounds of vegetables, chicken, stuffing
and peas pudding, and some of us even went back for seconds. Sara and Andrew brought a very nice wine and we listened to the Crowded House tribute album and Dido. For dessert we had ice cream snowballs with toasted coconut and chocolate sauce and some Purity Ginger Cookies that Sara had brought. It really was a lovely meal with very relaxing conversation.
After our company had left, the kitchen was all clean again, and I had my weekly Sunday night chat with my mom and nanny Winnie, Peter and I passed out while watching Dallas.
It certainly was an action-packed few days and I don't have much energy left to start my work week. But the exhaustion is a small price to pay for such a fantastic weekend!
Thanks friends for more great memories. Long time!
