Happy Easter

March 31, 2024

With gray skies on this early Easter, I’m feeling the need for some yellow and the simplest of decoration. Simple uncolored eggs in small patches of forced grass, handfuls of yellow Daffs and a mouthful of yellow Peeps should do nicely.  Enjoy your holiday.

Bonus

March 6, 2024

Leap Day, a bonus day for everyone. How did you spend yours?

Me? I spent the day with my partner in crime, baby Buster Porkchop 3000. We made a quick stop at Traders for a few things,

 

 

including a couple of bunches of Daffodils to usher in March. Their gentle fragrance and unmatched color can slice through a gray winter day like nothing else.

 

Another stop and we picked up the ingredients for Baby Bok Choy with Oyster Sauce. I thought it was a good day to step out of my routine and try something new. While Asian food I quite leave to those better suited, this had the simplequietmodern bonus of just a few ingredients cooked up in very little time. I’ll give it a thumbs up.

 

After dinner a little online shopping was in order before I lost or misplaced again the gift cards. A simple white cashmere sweater seemed an appropriate twist to my signature black for Spring. photo: Naadam

We finished off the day with a little Apple TV + and an episode of The New Look, the dramatic series about Christian Dior.  Period costumes and sets?  Yes, please.   photo: Apple TV+

All around it was the perfect ” day off” covering many bases. I hope yours was as well.
