i've been enjoying having tea in the special holder kathy and warren gave me for christmas that they had found in the town of chester (which we once visited together in the spring of 2024).


we had einkorn pasta and sautéed broccoli for dinner tonight with leftover tomato sauce that i wanted to use up . .

saturday adventures and morgan's play rehearsal


morning tea . . 

a visit to the town of chester . . 











we visited several art galleries . . 



these wood slabs were enormous . . i think they were intended to be made into tables and desks.

the house was quite old with beautiful wood floors and that 1700/1800 wood aroma . .




we came across an old model t ford . . 

the owner was in the process of cranking it up and said the car was from 1925 . . 










the artist is now 91 years old . . 

the copper plate with very fine etchings . . 

such delicate work . . 

there was also beautiful basketry, made by the woman we saw outside with her grandson whose model t we saw drive away . . 

we ate our sandwiches by the connecticut river and the goodspeed opera house . .

after a dinner of stuffed shells and broccoli salad, we prepared the easter meal of bean casserole and a spiral ham . . 


italian cookies and leftover pie for dessert.

earlier in the day, morgan had sent over photos from a rehearsal they had (choreographing for a film):



or maybe this is from the play they're working on . . i think there are two projects . . a play and a film!
