A new baby blanket and other weekend adventures

Dan and I had a very relaxing weekend. On Saturday afternoon we went downtown and finished our Christmas shopping. We stayed downtown for a delicious dinner at an Italian place Dan discovered last month when his friends Rich and Claire were in town. They hand make the pasta daily! I had squash and ricotta tortelloni with zucchini sauce. It was amazing! Dan ordered spaghetti with rabbit ragu. I didn't try it as it made me think of cute little bunnies.

Today our church held the second day of its holiday bazaar. After the 11am service, we perused the bazaar, which had a random assortment of handmade items and baked goods contributed by church members with all of the proceeds going to our church's community ministry efforts. We bought a word board game (developed by one of our fellow parishioners who is a game developer!) and a crocheted baby blanket. The blanket is beautiful! It is white with green trim and scalloped edges. I tried to take a photo of it below. It will be a great stroller blanket or just something for Lauren to cuddle up in when she gets a little older.
