There were lots of great adventures this month! To begin, I got to join a zoom author meet-up with one of my favorite authors, Kate Quin! It was great to hear how she writes her stories and learns from strong women from history.
Matt and I have been exploring lots of local rail trails as the majority of the state is muddy right now.
Yay for the return of in-person coffee meetings and fun events with live music.
My Christmas present from Matt was a weekend in Boston and tickets to see To Kill A Mockingbird! It exceeded ALL of our expectations. The actors (especially the guy who played Atticus and all the kids) were incredible and the show was slightly modernized to discuss the ever-evolving racial issues within the justice system. We loved it.
After our matinee, we had made reservations at Terramia Ristorante and had one of the best meals of our lives! The 10-table restaurant was in the heart of the North End and was probably the most authentic Italian food I've ever had, too. We started with lobster fritters (surprisingly I loved them!) with a delicious balsamic glaze and fried sweet potato ribbons, then I had this delicious mushroom parmesan truffle gnocchi and Matt had a veal chop that he is still talking about. We couldn't resist splitting tiramisu to finish the night. Absolute perfection.
Walking back to our hotel to try to work off some of our enormous dinner, we explored some of our favorite downtown areas and it was just a perfect night.
The ducklings wearing their Ukraine scarves
We had a beautiful Sunday morning walking around and getting brunch on Newbury Street.
The swan boats weren't out yet but it was a perfect weekend in Boston.
Of course Spring means I buy new plants
And a visit to the indoor farmers market wasn't complete without locally grown tulips, carrots, and popcorn!
