Noon dismissal on Friday, holler. I got home around 1, changed the sheets, ran the dishwasher, packed up the car, and hit the road with the dogs before 2. Mae was my co-pilot. When we got there we went right to the beach so the dogs could frolic. I organized the efficiency unit with stuff we need for the season (tools, extra lightbulbs/batteries/etc). My label maker was afire.
Debbie arrived around 6 and we went to the Big K and Shop-Rite before having dinner at
Piccini and admiring the newly installed exterior lighting that is so bright you could land planes near our house if there was room. We watched Pretty Woman and I painted my nails and called it a day at 12:30.
I was up at 6 and had the dogs down at the beach for about 50 minutes. They do not share my appreciation for watching a peaceful sunrise. They prefer to jackass around.
I putzed in the kitchen for a while, then Debbie and I went to
Sunrise Cafe for breakfast, then stopped back at home to finish making ribs and walk the dogs. We spent the afternoon strolling on Asbury Avenue and found a new favorite shop:
Blue Eden. We also picked up cookies from
Crazy Susan's Cookies and went to Rite-Aid twice because it's like my second home since Wawa is still closed for repairs from the January flooding.
MFD arrived and Jimmy Mac joined us for dinner. MFD was aghast that I had no marshmallows and improvised with Peeps on top of the mashed sweet potatoes. MFD and Jimmy went fishing and Debbie and I watched the Villanova game. We were supposed to do face masks but I passed out on the couch around 10 and slept until 8:15 the next morning. The dogs were pooped too.
So no Easter sunrise, but it was overcast. The dogs and I headed to the beach at 8:30, then we crapped around and had a lazy morning. MFD went to church, I cleaned the top two floors and made sweet potato treats for the dogs, Debbie made her famous deviled eggs, and we read magazines and relaxed and snacked.
Simple and early Easter dinner - ham, pineapple stuffing, steamed asparagus, and deviled eggs. The two blondes immediately passed out.
I took my bike for a spin and took the dogs down for a beach walk.
I got home at 6:30 and emptied the dishwasher, picked up around the house, did laundry, applied a face mask, showered, and was in bed reading by 9. Ahhh. The shore house has no central heat so it was nice to be back in mine.
Weekly food: leftover ham and ribs for dinners along with steamed veggies and the rest of the pineapple stuffing. Breakfast is breakfast burritos from the freezer and baby sweet peppers, lunch is leftovers today and I need to figure it out for the rest of the week.
I hope you had a fabulous Easter.
