Relaxing times…

This past Wednesday Matt’s Ad Concepts II class finished. To celebrate the last day of class we invited a few of Matt’s classmates over for a great Texas meal of Chili and beer. It was fun for me to meet the guys Matt spends his days with and it was some of the boys’ first Frito pie experience.

On Saturday we took advantage of the beautiful weather by walking down to the Lake Merritt Farmers Market. Living by the Chinese proverb we used our two coins – bought produce with one and flowers with the other. Matt bought a beautiful bouquet of fuchsia roses he knew I would love. We also found some great deals on mushrooms, lettuce and potatoes. After shopping around the market we worked our way back home with a walk around the lake. The Canadian Geese are leaving the area so we can spend more time around the lake again. Hooray!!! Shooo birds! It was nice for Matt and me to get to spend a Saturday morning together in such a leisurely way.
