Today, one of our local historic, upscale-casual restaurants stopped by my apartment complex and surprised us with a complete meal for all every resident. It was a cous cous dish with a side of asparagus, something else and a what I believe to be cornbread muffins. Everything was delicious. What simple pleasure did you notice today?

And there is still a bit more than a punch bowl full of it in the community room fridge.

Mee too. More of my money hits tomorrow, so I can finally get more food (since that which I bought last week).

@DianneN I wish you could have been here when we were planning our holiday gathering at Allyn Lodge. We all wanted the veggies to be asparagus and Brussels sprouts, but we knew the majority would want green beans. We like those too, but...

Very much so, but knowing the people who live here, most are not fans of asparagus, let alone couscous. But that okay, because it leaves more for me. :)

Are you sure about that because you did wake up breathing, and I bet you heard from quite a few of us. :)

It could have been a wedding or perhaps even vegetarian Easter, I suppose.
