PALM SUNDAY

 

It might be Palm Sunday, but there was no church in our lives, though the weather today was glorious. I had a weekend to myself which is always nice. I did however enjoy a nice classical Palm Sunday concert on WRTI, while getting things done around the Casa and do a spring housecleaning. I also got out the mother's hand painted ceramic eggs she used to paint when I was a wee one. I may even color some eggs this week, as I enjoy hard boiled eggs for lunch. Some gardening got accomplished and we were treated with another round of grape hyacinths, and the weeping cherry is now the star of the show, while more flowering bulbs are the co-stars. The dogwoods and the eastern red bud are waiting in the wings up next. I'd also be remised if I didn't express sadness for our swell governor Tom Shapiro, who had an arson attempt on the governor's mansion over the weekend, with some serious damage. He is one of the few politicians who actually does what he is voted in to do, keeps his promises and represents all, not to mention works with both sides for give and take. But he will not be stopped he said but will only work even harder! But we think of him this Passover.

Someone can't wait for din-din tonight. 

And for din-din tonight....

Stuffed Peppers on tap.

LATE NIGHT...JUANES

When I first heard of Juanes, it was way back when MTV was relevant, with an excellent show Unplugged. It's where I first heard Juan Esteban Aristizabal Vasquez, or simply know as Juanes. Love his music, a fusion of many genres. Juanes hails from Colombia, who was a member of a rock band before going solo and going on to win over 26 Latin Grammy Awards. What a treat to see him performing on last night's Austin City Limits as part of their 50th anniversary series with a repertoire of his work spanning back years. I was having a nice moment...maybe even dancing.
