I’m due for some updating. I had a busy last few weekends. My parents came the first weekend in April and it was their first real exploration into Some highlights of the visit included going to see Ray Davies (formerly of The Kinks) at the Orpheum Theater downtown, eating expensive seafood, and going on the Sam Adams Brewery tour (free beer!). I also showed them around the Equal Exchange offices/warehouse, so they got to see where I work.
We saw quite a bit of the city in five days, so you can imagine it was quite exhausting. Being over 21 definitely has its perks, as it was nice to be able to just sit in a pub and have a beer when we needed to rest from all the walking. They left Tuesday morning, but we said goodbye knowing we’d most likely see each other soon, when I’m working in

And sometimes I even remembered to watch the game.
This past weekend, my friend Stephanie from MSU visited. She is the reason I live with Vanessa, because she and Vanessa are friends from working at a camp together a couple summers ago. Steph came to
So, Saturday we did touristy stuff. I finally got a cannoli for the first time at legendary Mike’s Pastry in the North End. It was very creamy. Definitely have to share it. We also got a lobster tail. Also very creamy. I am looking forward to relaxing this weekend.
