Getting ready for the feast of Transfiguration was on the agenda today. We bought groceries: festal things like grapes (four types), flowers, and salmon and also normal things like oil for the lampadas, cereal, olives, hummus, and bread. We took a leisurely trip to the park to enjoy the mild temperature in the early afternoon and then I spent a little time winding a new skein of wool for my blanket, making eggplant caponata for dinner, and tidying up. Tomorrow is the feast and we'll bring baskets of grapes to be blessed and have a little bring-your-own-lunch pool party with our friends. Then it will be time to prepare for the wedding!
