good things from the weekend

reader, the baron had another good weekend, "good" having been determined by a) the amount of hours she spent outside the house and in the world, and b) the number of times she had to use her 'emergency bag' (the plastic shopping bag that the baron has with her at all times, secreted away into her pocket, her purse, her desk drawers, and her car?).

she and the husband had a lovely and busy time: over the course of saturday and sunday, they visited a honda dealership (and test drove both the pilot and the crv), a mall (AND they ate at the food court; this, reader, does not happen to them ever - in fact, the husband's falafel and the baron's fried rice might have been their very first food court date), a bookstore (barnes & noble, no less, and mostly for gift shopping), and a series of asian grocery stores.

on the whole it was a highly satisfying weekend, one that ended with the baron and the husband, on sunday afternoon, sitting in the yard and enjoying the uncommonly fine weather. the baron took the opportunity to take this photo, "a man and (one of) his dog(s)".
