The Friday before a special weekend

1.  It was only a short week, but I'm happy it's Friday.  Roll on the weekend :-)

2.  One of our favourite meals: chicken and mushroom risotto, using the last of Tuesday's lemon roast chicken.  And we've got enough left for another meal on Sunday (leftover leftovers!)

3.  The presents are wrapped and ready for tomorrow's wedding celebrations.  We've just checked the weather forecast, and it might stay dry!  I'm looking forward to it.

Ready for the Easter weekend

I enjoyed walking around the office handing out the chocolate nests and wishing everyone a Happy Easter.  It's a small way to recognise the reason for the long weekend, and I love that something so simple brings a smile to all our faces.

I'm very glad that it's now the weekend.  It's felt like a long week, with more ups and downs than usual, so I'm ready for a couple of days off.  And we've got a list of things to do - plenty of time with friends and family, and hopefully some time to get our house sorted out a bit more.

We ate in the summer house again this evening; I dressed warmly and enjoyed relaxing (almost) outside as the sun went down.

A surprise phone call this evening means we have an extra visitor at the end of the weekend.  It'll be good to catch up with him.
