Grace in Small Things 169, 170

We are back from two days away. For my birthday, Sylvain took us to Stratford where we saw The Merry Wives of Windsor. Not counting Windsor Fringe Festivals, it was Sylvain’s first live theatre experience.

Savour, savour, savour.

What was wonderful?

  • Driving for hours through rolling farmland
  • and past quaint town squares
  • getting dressed up…and a fiance who tells me at least once an hour how much he likes the new dress
  • the bread at Pazzo
  • taking off my sandals to walk along the Avon while families of swans nestle together on the grass close enough to nip at my dress
  • seeing Amaranth up close for the first time (in the Festival Theatre flower gardens)
  • noting that traveling together gets easier and less stressful every time we do it
  • seeing a movie at the Princess, just for old times’ sake–one with astounding cinematography
  • the way her blazer sets off my friend K’s sapphire blue eyes
