After yesterday’s Easter celebrations we took it comparatively easily today.
This morning I worked on ideas for a logo for a friend’s project. I won’t feature this work in progress until I submit it for acceptance.
This afternoon I undertook more picture recovery for the following posts:
The first two and the fourth are of the Convert to Blocks edit type; the third was Attempt Block Recovery.
Later, I read some more Balzac and published https://derrickjknight.com/2023/04/09/droll-tales-20/
For dinner we all enjoyed succulent roast lamb; crisp Yorkshire pudding and roast potatoes; tangy red cabbage and apple; firm carrots, cauliflower and broccoli; meaty gravy; mint and cranberry sauce, with which Jackie drank Hoegaarden and I drank more of the Coonawarra red wine.
It’s good to take a day to rest and relax 🙂
Yes. Thanks very much, Dale
Sounds like a wonderful Easter dinner. If that taking it easy, would Jackie agree? Seems like she cooked a lot of wonderful food. 🙂
She did. I did prepare the veg, carve the joint, and lay the table 🙂
Sometimes it’s just nice to have a relatively lazy day
My mother was a big proponent of the “lazy day” for what ailed me (usually grumpiness).
🙂

I tend to get grumpy if I work too hard with no break. A lazy day helps restore my equilibrium.
Oh absolutely
🙂
Essential. Thanks very much, Sheree
I can well understand you both wanting to relax today!
Thanks very much, Merril
Sounds like my kind of productive day. 🙂
Thanks a lot, Sue
There’s nothing as good as a relaxing day and a nice bit of reflection.
Thank you very much, Agnes
I’m glad you took an easy day. I enjoyed the ponies and allium in the weaning post.
Thank you very much, JoAnna
I am sure you needed to rest after all that excitement. I really liked the water pictures of Jessica and the children.
Thank you so much, Laurie. I was lucky to get a few in before I was stopped
The image chosen to corroborate the title is apt, apart from being lovely.
Much appreciated, Uma
A lovely relaxing day!
We all need these days. So pleased you got this day.
Thanks very much, Gary
Sometimes easy days are needed.
I am glad you retained the film, Derrick. Your project of converting all posts to blocks must invoke a bit of sweet sorrow traveling down memory lane.
You are quite right, Lavinia. Thank you very much
I feel everyone needs a lazy day just to rest.
The captioned photo reminded me of a painting by Renoir. Beautiful 🙂
Thank you iso much, Rosaliene
A wonderful day!
We always need a day off to rest after a holiday…and we always need days off to rest after a vacation. HA!
(((HUGS)))❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thanks very much, Carolyn X
I haven’t tried Coonawarra red. Is it a blend? Where’s it from? Sounds Australian. Your dinner sounded delicious. The culinary queen is so talented !

Thank you for the link. I’ll look for that at our wine gallery that brings in so many good wines from abroad.
