Weekend Recap
On Friday we finally had some good warm weather. Dave arrived back from his work trip, and I walked up to meet a colleague for lunch. Since Dave was back we could catch up on our family shows - Amazing Race and the Baking Show.
On Saturday morning I got up to head out for a run. When I got back Dave was working on the lawn, and we got E to go out and help him. This is a typical teenager outfit - winter coat and sandals.

March and April Books
If you are in Canada and didn't vote in the advance polls (like me), get out there today to vote in our Federal Election. This is the most important election of our time and wouldn't it be amazing to see record number of voters this time!
I read a couple of books in March and April to tell you about today:
Z: A Novel of Zelda Fitzgerald by Therese Anne Fowler
This book is the fictionalized story of Zelda and F. Scott Fitzgerald (the author), how they met, married, and spent their years together.
I got this book for Christmas and when I started reading it, I realized I had read it before. I seem to remember that the first time I read it, I really enjoyed reading about the parties and clothes and the time spent away in Europe, but this time I was mostly just annoyed with Scott and Zelda. Perhaps I am more mature now and could not relate to their irresponsibility.
Real Ones by Katherena Vermette
The Heart’s Invisible Furies by John Boyne
One Perfect Couple by Ruth Ware

Cherry pie, I did not make one for Easter this year, but I have the ingredients so I will do it soon.
