April 1st Weekend


Whaddaya know about blowing out candles? I thought i did know as much as any other guy. Turns out, I can't just blow really hard at a small candle in a jar becase... well, because I'd get a face full of hot wax. Talking from experience here. Wax in my mouth, eyes, nose, hair. It was quite unpleasant though harmless. I had my eyes closed for a descent time for all the wax to harden so i can take it off, which wasn't an easy task. Oh how much will I learn in this life without realizing it. Let's hope my daily meditation helps me with daily battles. Of wax.


Since Michelle stayed in CT this weekend, we ventured to see few of our friends over a poker game and billiard. Even discussed future feast of home made dishes in the near future. Something of Chicken pot pie, scallion potatoes and Kahlua cake. It's just as good as it sounds only better :)

April First: Because my lovely girl endured  went through 4 vegetarian Mondays in a row, as a reward we went to Jones Vineard for their opening weekend of wine tasting, purchased few bottles of great wine, a rosemary bush, and yet again were serviced by our favorite wine pourer, casually chatted about wine and not so wine related topics. Looking forward to coming back for strawberry season (may-june) and blueberry season after that, pumpkin season in the fall and we'll probably grab a Christmas tree in the winter, since the farm grows all of these too. 

After departing from our wine session, lunch was on our minds and it was decided to head to ever-popular diner in Fairfield (always full of people = good food). We both had soup and she went with monte cristo sandwich as i enjoyed grilled salmon over spinach salad. 

At home, chores were waiting, but we tackled them with no problem with all the energy we've had. Went by pretty fast. Brushing cats was not too fun. The evening culminated with some spicy dinner of broccoli , water chestnuts and chicken. and TWO movies: "Meet Bill" and "The Living Wake", both were pretty entertaining but the latter one was quite a bit odd, which made it even greater.
