Last Weekend

Just now getting around to posting about last weekend. I saw two plays, so that was fun. On Friday night, I went to see a play called “Coming or Going” that my friend, Amanda, was in. It was excellent!!! It was in a really tiny theatre with just three rows of chairs. The story was of 4 sisters from Texas. They did a really good job portraying different Texas stereotypes. It was funny and sad all at the same time. I really enjoyed it.

Saturday night, Joy and I got half-price tickets to see "Vertical Hour", with Julianne Moore and Bill Nighy. It was closing on Sunday, so this was our last chance to see it. I really enjoyed seeing Julianne Moore. Bill Nighy was also very good, but I really had trouble getting into this play. It was very political and I get bored by that pretty quickly.

I also went to brunch with Joy and Amanda and her roommate on Saturday at a French restaurant called Felix. It was really good and a very cute restaurant down in SoHo. We sat there forever people-watching…very fun. The restaurant was on West Broadway which I hadn’t really walked down much before and I discovered that it is a really cute street filled with great shops. After shopping for a while, Joy and I discovered a bakery that sells only crème puffs!! My family has a special love for crème puffs because our grandma was known for hers. So, when I saw the bakery, I just had to go in! Joy and I both got one—mine was chocolate covered, Joy’s was not. The crème inside was really good. Definitely a good new find!

Sunday I went to church and afterwards attended a meeting for the Kids Ministry. I am going to be on the leadership team for that and am really excited about it. One of my new responsibilities is to buy the supplies for Sunday School every week so that will be fun. This Sunday I am going to teach for the first time and I’ll be with the pre-schoolers. I am really looking forward to getting to know some of the kids there!
