We celebrated Easter outdoors with the kids today. Jeanine prepared a lovely strawberry-pecan salad, French lasagna, and strata with mushrooms and chard. For dessert, we enjoyed a collection of fine chocolates. Later, we planted four Spartan blueberry bushes on the river bank. We hope that in the years to come we will enjoy the fruit of these plantings with the next generation of Calabria’s. Earlier in the day, I travelled to Peabody for my soccer season-opening match. Our pre-season preparation served us well and we secured a 4-0 win. I am still struggling to gain back the level of fitness I had last season but managed to survive the match with no injuries and no mistakes.
