A Weekend in New England

Wow, this past weekend was wonderful. I spent three days with Kerri and Adria in Boston and New Hampshire celebrating Kerri's baby shower and some good time with friends. Adria picked me up at Logan on Thursday night and after a nice quiet dinner in the North End we went back to her place in Amherst, New Hampshire. Lots of cooking, laughing and talking was JUST what the Dr. ordered after a bunch of weeks cooped up in my office so I could not have had more fun. I'm grateful that me putting Kyan's clothes on backwards and filling their home with smoke during the cooking of a quiche were my only blunders during the visit. (The last time we were there for the weekend Jonathan and I managed to lose their dog Kava in the woods- later to be found- thankfully- so a little smoke and snaps in the wrong place seems somewhat minor this time:) Ahh well, thankfully, friendship withstands such craziness.

Saturday was Kerri's baby shower celebration and we had about 25 guests for the event. Kerri looked absolutely beautiful and had everyone in the room jealous of her fantastic figure at 32 weeks along! I'll post some photos in the next day or two but just wanted to put a short message up to say we had SOO much fun. Kerri picked up some wonderful baby things (although I'm guessing every first time mom needs some lessons on nipple cream and all of the interesting contraptions one receives from the seasoned mommy veterans:) It was a great time!

On Sunday before I started my trip home I finally got to learn Dree's super secret eggplant parmesan recipe so don't be surprised if you have that the next time you visit!!! It is terrific.

Hope you all have a wonderful week!
