Easter Sunday

B.'s parents left today after a very full, wonderful weekend. On Easter, we had a feast (which we still have leftovers from). We found a little Polish deli on Capital Hill and I swear B.'s mom bought half of the store. Then we went to the market and bought even more food and fresh flowers. His mom and I spent most of Saturday making borsch and several other side dishes. On Sunday, I escaped going to mass and helped with final preparations. I even made mimosas from freshly squeezed blood oranges we got at the market.

We took a brief break from our feeding marathon (at least that's how it felt) for a walk around the park and then later that night we took the Spirit of Washington Dinner Train to the winery and back. The train ride was a bit disappointing, as it was mostly urban areas with a few open views of Lake Washington, but we still had a great time.

Needless to say, I've been going from one thing to the next lately, and so today it was nice to just take some time to relax and have fun.

I took my new bike out for a spin and "paced" B. on one of his last long runs before the marathon. He ran while I biked alongside him. It was beautiful and sunny, but there was so much wind that it was pretty cold. I wished I had a camera to take a picture of the Olympics from the Elliott Bay Marina.
