Weekending.

This one included a lot of knitting (which I'll share on Wednesday) and a surprising number of other good things. Thankfully, I even remembered to take a few photos:
We got the weekend off to a FriYAY start with an evening walk beer and then snacks. I was up early to watch the wedding festivities (that middle photo is the first one I snapped 😀) and Marc joined me in plenty of time to see the royal arrivals, the dress reveal and the ceremony. We both enjoyed the whole thing (and even rewatched highlights a few times). The TV was back on Saturday evening for the very muddy Preakness and I love that we have a Triple Crown contender! Yesterday morning the sun was shining for my morning walk; the daylilies are in full bloom and almost glowing in the sunshine. In the afternoon we attended a special party - a tea (complete with scones, sandwiches, my two favorite toddlers, a host of other family members and of course pearls and hats) for an 80th birthday celebration.

I hope your weekend included good things, too - please share!

Lovely weekend! I too watched a very foggy, muddy, wet Preakness and did the dance of joy for Mr. Baffert and his triple crown chances.

Dude. Those are some truly worthy Friday Night Snacks! Sounds like your weekend was great all 'round.

John contends that snacks aren't enough for a "real" meal, but I need to show him your epic snack presentation! I may have to give Friday night snacks a try, and institute that evening walk beer tradition, too!

What a great weekend! And yes, those snacks! All of the rain this weekend was a good excuse to stay in and catch up on my reading and even a little knitting.

What a great weekend! Like Bonny's John, Fletch doesn't consider snacks to be a meal...and he's not into appetizers either but your selection looks amazing (and filling!).

I was just thinking what Bonny said. Smith would think snacks an appetizer rather than dinner, but yours do look like plenty (to me!). We watched a few highlights of the wedding, which truly was beautiful, but our main focus was else where. :)

No snacks for supper in this house either...though I could do it every day! Looks like a great weekend Mary!

I also watched the tail end of the wedding...tuned in just in time to hear the cellist! Amazing! We had pour-down rain all day and I really coveted the sunny day across the pond. Sunday drier...Monday sunny and today - Wed - 50/50...sun & clouds...
Your weekend sounds quite nice...
Cheers~
