Mother's Day

Sunday was Mother's Day, and it was sunny and unseasonably warm in Portland. Steve made a lovely breakfast of challah French toast with strawberries and ricotta, plus bacon. And then we dragged our over-stuffed bellies for a slow walk in Forest Park along the Ridge trail, the Wildwood, and Firelane 7. The adults enjoyed naps, and then it was a lazy afternoon of reading, Zooming with family, some chores. Both kids took me up on my strong hint that I would like a nature craft present, with clear directions from Karen/Sparky, and I was delighted with the outcomes. And then Steve picked up dinner at Tasty and Alder - takeout meals are such a treat these days - and there was a gorgeous sunset out our back deck.
