Easter weekend!

    Easter has arrived and what a weekend it has been, especially if you are a Sabres fan!  The Sabres pulled off a win Friday night to put us in a position to take out the Flyers today on Easter Sunday.  Saturday morning we went to the Broadway Market located in one of Buffalo’s most unflattering parts of town.  Normally people wouldn’t go near this area but the weeks leading up to Easter, this place is loaded with some of the best Easter food around.  Amazing home made candy, breads, perogies, and meats, this is the place to go before Easter Sunday.
    Saturday night we went to Brodo with some of Nicole’s good friends.  Brodo is an overpriced restaurant that makes average food.  Its not terrible and its not great.  Nicole had a mushroom gorgonzola ravioli and I had a grilled cheese sandwich with fancy cheeses.  I’m a sucker for grilled cheese and as long as t hey have a great beer that I can drink with it, I’m a happy camper.  I washed it down with a Victory Hop Devil, which is one of my favorites.  Minus the overpriced average food, the night was fun and I enjoy being the only guy amongst a group of babbeling  yentas.

We went to the Broadway market to get some perogies for our Sunday Easter dinner, something I wanted to bring back as a tradition.  Easter was always huge in my family growing up with a Ukrainian grandmother.  We would always have the best food Easter Sunday.  So this year we got fresh perogies and Nicole and I made home made vegetarian cabbage rolls using some vegetarian ground beef.

Some news….

   The eBay store has been overhauled and now has the feature to actually select a size instead of emailing me with a size after the purchase has been made.  I can’t even begin to tell you how much easier this will make things.  It is amazing how many people will order a shirt not knowing what size they are ordering, and just assuming I know which one they need.  Those days are over, now they can select the size and I will get it.
    My girlfriend Nicole has been jobless for a few months because she had been laid off and things were getting tough.  Not in our relationship or anything like that, but more her morale had been down from not being able to find a job.  Today she accepted a job offer in her field and things are now on the upswing. Tonight we are going to see a film downtown about the people from Burma moving to Buffalo.  We are really interested in seeing this movie because we actually live in the area  that they are all moving to.

Awesome weather!

   The weather here has been terrible for a while now.  Rainy, gloomy days mixed with cold flurries occasionally.  It has not been pleasant here at all.  Yesterday the weather was amazing. The sun was shining bright and people were out and about enjoying a break from the gloom.  Nicole, Ric, and I decided to go for a stroll through the neighborhood.  We live near the Elmwood Village which is filled with all kinds of little shops and a wide variety of people.  Ric has put on some winter weight so its good to get his chubby fanny into gear.  I decided to sport the Vulcan sweatshirt from our new line of hoodies.  We took a few pictures of the neighborhood along the way.
