The Quarantine 15
Today started with a zoom mani-pedi season for Beatrix and me with my friend Sarah and her daughter. Beatrix and I made the internet-famous fluffy coffee drinks as part of our relaxation.
Then we had a family birthday party celebration with our Norwegian relatives. My incredibly organized cousin Erin organized the celebration AND dropped off cupcakes for everyone so we could celebrate together. She makes and decorates incredible cakes.
Also, in case you were wondering, the Norwegians are not big fans of the Swedes lack of social distancing.
Tonight, Patrick went to pick up our weekly "hustle pack" from Lawless, also picking up the order for our friends Chip and Amy (I'm posting Amy's picture here because we are waiting to open ours until Zoom HH with Elyse and Heath later).
After all that, plus working on a painting project (more on that later), we ordered delicious Shish for dinner. Leo and Beth really know their stuff:
Plus a crowler from Lake Monster:
Dessert was s'mores at the fire pit. They did not have regular marshmallows at the store so Patrick had to get extra big ones.
My friend Tracy and her youngest daughter got matching squirrel onesie pajamas they've been wearing during quarantine. I might need one if I keep eating like this.
But seriously, it feels really good to try some new things and to support small businesses we are passionate about — because if we don't do that now, they won't be here when we ever bounce back from this.
