Broadchurch

   I've been binging on "Broadchurch" this weekend - Jenn from "Coffee on the Porch with Me" put me onto it. It's a UK series and I got the first season from the library. It's excellent. The second series is on its way to my local library branch so I will be able to continue with the series in a day or two.

    It was a good day to spend in front of the TV, still cold with a few flurries. Roll on, Spring!

Is it Really April?

   This was the view from my front window this afternoon.

   It snowed most of the afternoon, then we had some sun and it has mostly melted. Can't wait for some warmer weather!

Chilled to the Bone

   Although the outdoor thermometer read 4C, it didn't feel like that today. A drab, dreich day with rain and the threat of snow overnight led to me coming home from my Bridge game this afternoon feeling the need for an evening by the fire.

   So the fire is burning away brightly and I have my toes close to the flames. On the table is a pre-prandial snack of blue cheese and smoked salmon on crackers with a glass of wine. That should hold me until dinner is ready!

    

April's Here!

   A long walk this morning - it was sunny but still cold so I walked briskly for 45 minutes. Hope I burned off some calories! 

   Easter Sunday lunch with the family. We were nine around the table as Judy and Steve's Aunt Lena was visiting from Scotland, a very pleasant addition to our little group.

    Luckily Judy hosted it at her house as my stove is still not working. We had a delicious meal of cauliflower soup, ham, peas, roasted potatoes and Greek salad (Steve's contribution), followed by key lime pie (made by Elliot, it was yummy) with whipped cream and coffee. James made little buns, courtesy of the Pillsbury doughboy, and individual Keurig coffees. So it was a combined effort. Dave, as usual, did a great job of cleaning up afterwards. 

   No dinner tonight but a snack later. Judy had made some Easter Braid bread and I came home with a chunk of that to snack on.
