Well, Easter lunch turned out quite nicely! We ended up having our neighbor and her sister (who came later). Stephen did a lot of the cooking! You, know he's not bad in the kitchen! :-) My very favorite part of the meal was the pierogies and cheese sauce! Yummy! The coconut cream pie was really yummy too! That was the first one we had made from scratch (with the exception of the cool whip). We did a joint effort on that part of the meal. Stephen had this really good idea of putting roasted almonds between the layer of coconut custard and the cool whip.

Saturday night (a week ago) Stephen was a brave man and cut my hair for the first time! He did a nice a job! He ended up taking off quite a bit...about three inches. Stephen had a frustrating time trying to get his hair cut at a barbers earlier in the day. We went to the first place and waited and waited, and finally got up and left. We went to a second place and waited and waited while two barbers worked and what appeared to be two others sat off to the side...taking their break, I guess, while customers waited. Then a young guy that walked in after us was allowed to cut. Perhaps he'd been there earlier or something but, if that was true, that was not explained. We walked out of that place too and looking for a third option, which we found. They were able to take Stephen quite quickly, but the lady was a little "over ambitious" and cut the hair too short too high. The look wasn't exactly what he was going for. I've cut his hair a couple times with him instructing me along the way. After a day like that we may make cutting each other's hair the norm around here.
