Easter California Style

Easter California style means 75 + degree weather and the first time I wore a real sun dress to Easter Mass. It means spending the entire afternoon on the beach (and getting a little sunburn which I don't even mind) then sitting on my porch in a tank top and shorts until 6:30, and then catching a movie by myself and a bag of Reeses Pieces. The movie was Juno and I looooved it and also (for the first time) enjoyed going to a movie by myself. Okay, I only went one other time and the movie was bad, but still. I will take it as an accomplishment.

All these years being away from home, okay like two other years :), I tried to re-create an Easter dinner. In Ohio, I went to Jordan's and had a Polish Easter which was fun but not home. Last year, I tried to have an Easter dinner here which just made me homesick. This year I let go keeping only Mass (the most important part) and tried to enjoy what California had to offer. It was wonderful. And it definitely helped to talk to my parents and one of my aunts, but it also helps knowing I will be home in just a few short California days.
