I named him Cheeto

So last night I went to that potluck and someone made eggplant Parmesan which is one of my favorites.  It was a really enjoyable night with some of my best friends and some people I'm just starting to get to know.  We had tea, chatted about our lives, turned music on and sang some of our favorite songs together.  One of the people I didn't know very well yet gave me a rather extravagant gift.  No occasion or anything.  I felt a little awkward accepting it at the time, but it was a sweet gesture and meaningful in a way that's hard to explain.  I was humbled.

Today was so nice and sunny, not a single cloud in the sky.  I slept in this morning, had a picnic at the park, talked to my parents on the phone, and then went to the Japanese gardens with a friend.  There were a lot of beautiful blossoms there, sitting under them it was like falling snow.  I enjoyed watching the koi fish and seeing the ceramics exhibit.  I met one koi fish that was the same color as flaming hot Cheetos, so I named him Cheeto. 

After that I went to the beach and laid out in the sun and read my book for awhile.  I saw lots of people with their dogs, and the dogs looked really happy.  The sand felt warm between my toes.  

I just got home and I'm going to do some spring cleaning.  I hope your day was as good as mine was.  Have a great evening.
