Easter

April 12th, 2009

Ok, I know I said I have all these things to blog about and I do! Its just that Matthew’s sister Jaime came to town Thursday and we’ve been having too much fun to sit down at the computer. 

Today was a great day in NYC. After pouring rain yesterday the sun finally came out and even thought it was pretty cold (40 deg!) it was at least pleasant.

We had a really fun day today, not a typical Easter Sunday for most but maybe a typical one for us. Family, friends, good food. No egg hunting this year, but I’m sure its something we can look forward to in years to come.

This morning Jaime’s friend Stephanie, who goes to NYU, came over for brunch. Matthew made an amazing frittata, potatoes and turkey bacon and Steph brought over pastries to go with our strawberries for dessert. I am seriously having issues with remembering to take photos so we have none, its pretty sad. 

In the afternoon the 3 of us went to see West Side Story which was awesome. We walked around the village for a while before going to dinner at Blue Hill NYC. We treated ourselves (and Jaime of course!) to the tasting menu in honor of her stay. Not only did I forget to take pictures, I didn’t even bring the camera. Its PATHETIC. One of the specialties at Blue Hill is their use of “this morning’s farm egg”,err…an egg from this morning. They bring it over from the farm and it is so delicious! As a speacial Easter gift they gave us this basket of this morning’s farm eggs.

Can’t wait to enjoy them tomorrow.
