Weekly Delights: Week of April 1, 2024

This is a new weekly series, shamelessly ripped off from Ellen’s Weekly Delights and Danielle’s Last Week Delight.

Monday, April 1

Saw a couple of good April Fool’s jokes, including SpringShare’s LibBNB and this one from the National Park Service. I really appreciated SpringShare’s commitment to the bit (they even link to past April Fool’s jokes) and how the NPS came up with something they could turn into a history lesson.

Tuesday, April 2

Caught a livestream yoga class from Yoga Heights for the first time in about a month. I’ve started strength training and the schedule for that has conflicted with the Tuesday livestream class, and due to work obligations I haven’t been able to get to the other days that I usually attend. It felt really good to get back to it, especially in a class led by one of my favorite instructors.

Wednesday, April 3

Caught another livestream yoga class. I didn’t realize it but there was a sub, and it was another of my favorite teachers.

Thursday, April 4

The sun came back after a very rainy and overcast few days. I wouldn’t have said I was having a down week but WOW did my mood improve!

We went to dinner at Moreland’s Tavern, a local favorite that we hadn’t been to in a while, and I got to enjoy a side of fresh, crispy tater tots. There’s nothing like a crispy restaurant tot.

Friday, April 5

We ate dinner at home, but afterward walked up to a local spot where we ordered beers and desserts. Our server was delighted by this. When we left, she called after us: “See you next time, party people!”

Naturally, because we’re Team Starts the Party, we were home by 8pm.

Saturday, April 6

We went out to dinner at Annabelle to celebrate our anniversary. The meal and ambiance were wonderful. I really love a place that’s so elegant, and has such a high caliber of food and service, but still manages to keep the experience comfortable and relaxed. We discovered a new kind of wine we like (white burgundy) and I had an amazing dish involving scallops.

Plus, I got a pretty bouquet from my hubby.

Sunday, April 7

Enjoyed some fresh, homemade sourdough with our eggs this morning.

We went to the garden center, where I picked up a bunch of annuals for our various hanging baskets and stocked up on fertilizer.
