I think this was the best Easter I have had in a long time. Nearly perfect.
First up: Church. I love the Basilica on most Saturday nights, but on holidays it's always perfect. The sanctuary looked gorgeous, and the music was beautiful.
Then we met up with the rest of the family for the best brunch ever. Major thanks to the loveliest of roommates for hooking us up and giving us the VIP treatment. I don't need to eat again for a long, long time. I think my favorite? The salmon, so good!
From there we headed to dad's place for the main attraction: dessert. Mom and I put together the finishing touches of the cake, which involved me making whip cream without a kitchenaide. I knew there was a reason why I lift weights- I owned that whisk :)
Isn't it glorious? My favorite part of this entire cake would have to be the fresh whipped cream topping complete with berries.
I think the best part about Easter, besides the religious meaning, is that it marks the real end of winter. Did I mention it was 65 and sunny today? So thrilling.
Something that's been on my mind as of late: "When times are good, be happy; but when times are bad consider: God has made the one as well as the other. Therefore, a man cannot discover anything about his nature" Ecclesiastes 7:14
