Easter being what it is, the magnolias were in better spirit for the holiday
and served as a prelude for my journey to Princeton Junction
to collect Jane
and bring her back where the peeps were the first sign that we were celebrating.
Next, Katie Camille appeared after an endless journey back from Burkina Fasa
with much luggage in tow
and the food preparations began with pineapple
and a casserole
strawberries
and a wonderful box on Belgian chocolates brought from the source by Katie-Camille
as the pineapple were installed
and the table was prepared for the feast
as onions
and vegetables were assembled
and the table was set set for the diners
but the peeps still stood guard
as the table
now waited for the salad plates
and asparagus
and strawberries
were a sign that tomatoes could be added to the salad plates (fish still to come, no doubt).
Sadly the computer chose this minute to collapse
but the peeps got company
and so did we as Jeff arrived with his brother, his nephew and Wellington.
The flowers they brought made Suzanne feel good
as Wellington posed with Jane
and the fish was served
while the assembled visited in the living room
before we adjourned to the dining room where the table was set
|
and was just waiting for the people
|
and with food
and drink
the assembled seemed to continue to eat
|
until the cake
and strawberries
made this display on my plate
and the chocolate
revved me up for an artistic view of the table
and those who came to feast on Easter.
