Easter with dude’s family is always entertaining. Today’s Easter Revelation was Dude’s 75-ish-year-old Latvian aunt telling us that until the day he died (last year? or so?) her husband wouldn’t let her wear red because of its associations with Communist Russia. (Indignantly, “And I look good in red!”)
Also I had a pavlova for the first time and ZOMG. So that’s a thing I need to add to my repertoire.
Finally, dude’s cousin was there with her German Shepherdish Mutt Hound and that was lovely. (Gita is about 70 pounds, mostly tail, and has floppy ears, German Shepherd coloring but not proportions, and paces nervously a lot and wants to be Everyone’s Friend, but is not jumpy or licky which is nice. She also destroys things with her tail and snout; this trip’s casualty was an empty wineglass that she accidentally snooted to the floor whilst simply turning her head too fast. She is a Good Girl.)
