TWTW - the one with the mothers

Friday afternoon was warm and gorgeous. I popped into LOVE Park to try and spot Philly Jesus when I made my afternoon DD run but no dice. I wore my new Keep Collective bracelet and MFD hung new curtains in our room. My younger self weeps at how excited I was over them.

I planted at 6 p.m. Friday and MFD mulched Saturday. I always have the urge to over plant but these things grow and I need to give them space to do so. Omm.

Evening birthday celebrations for Geege included chicken, bananas, tons of treats, and a long walk where he could run the fields and roll around. Someone is excited about the carnival descending on the neighborhood this week and it's not me. Thanks to Mae for the gross photo bomb. Chinese for dinner because we're lazy, YOLO, etc.

Saturday laundry, weights, and weekly food prep: two batches of power breakfast muffins, some to freeze and some for this week's breakfasts; HBE for breakfasts; and cold taco dip for Sunday. Lunches are PBJ, snap peas, and carrots. Dinners are tacos, salads, baked chicken and steamed vegetables.

Amanda and I took at 3:30 train up to NYC to meet up with Michele, have dinner al fresco at DBGB Kitchen in the Bowery, then see Amanda's #1 Peter Sarsgaard play Hamlet at the Classic Stage Company. It was over three hours long! The theater was very intimate, and it was really good. Peter was amazing and really gracious after the play, as were his wife and daughter when we saw them in front of the theater after. It was a great day. I got home at 2:30 and didn't go to sleep until 3:30. Hashtag old lady hated that.

Mother's Day rounds - breakfast at my dad & Carol's, lunch at MFD's parents', and dinner at my Mom's all on four hours of sleep and no makeup. We got to see our nephews, Debbie, Aubrey's parents and brother and niece and nephew in our travels and celebrate my stepdad's birthday. It was a nice day. Aubrey killed it with an egg casserole at breakfast and two dessert dips at dinner. Cheers Mothers!
