Hello blog friends.
It's been a while since I last did a Friday Favorites post. I'd like to share with you what I'm loving right now.

1. Art Work
Every Friday Jenna from the blog The Painted Apron posts art work she does for her Fearless Friday series. Jenna sketched a bike with flowers.
I liked Jenna's sketch so much that it inspired me to try and draw it too. I used a pencil to draw out the bike and flowers. I then outlined the sketch with a thin black marker. I then used colored makers to fill in the rest of the sketch.
I enjoyed drawing the bike and this sketch reminds me of a spring day. Thanks Jenna for inspiring me to sketch!

2. Lunch at Home
While we've been sheltering in place here at home we've been taking turns making meals for each other.
My daughter made me an avocado grilled cheese sandwich for lunch which was so good and yummy.

3. Spring Flowers
I loved seeing spring flowers popping up in my garden.

4. Zoom Zumba Work Out Schedule
Since my gym has been closed during this coronavirus I have been taking Zumba classes on Zoom. Our instructors from the gym have been teaching the classes along with my gym friends. It's so much fun and we still get to dance together. This happens to be one of my highlights of the day.

5. Bosco's Spa Day
Mr. JCL and I usually bath Bosco about once a month. Bosco is such a good boy during his bath and he always smells so good. I love when his hair gets soft and fluffy.

6. Starbucks Coffee
The weather was beautiful on Sunday and we sat outside. We enjoyed the hot Starbucks coffee I made.

7. Takeout Lunch
I was so happy when Mr. JCL suggested we do takeout for lunch on Saturday. We have a Just Salad restaurant in our area and we ordered takeout salads. These salads are so good and loaded with a lot of good veggies. I had a Greek Salad that was so delicious. Our salads were so good that I forgot to take a photo of the other salads. Probably because I was hangry! LOL!

Hello blog friends. Welcome to Three Things April.
I am joining Laura from The Horton Family for her Three Things Series. Laura doesn't have a link party, but we all write and answer the writing prompts for each month. It will be posted on the second Monday of the month.

Here are the Three Things Question and Answer Prompts.

1) What 3 Things are on your Spring Bucket List?
1) Spring Shopping. I started my spring shopping recently by buying flip flops. To me, that screams spring/summer. Some of you might have recognized this photo of the flip flops from my Instagram @brklynhousewife.
2) Gardening. I plant flowers in my yard and garden every Spring.
3) Spring cleaning our basement. We need to organize one section in our basement that is filled with boxes, books, and a lot other items. We both have been putting off this project for quite a while.
2) Spring cleaning, Spring forward, or Spring Break. Which is your favorite and why?
My favorite is Spring Break!
I love spring break and taking spring vacations. This photo was taken when we took a family vacation to California a few years ago to visit our friend. It's fun to travel on spring break to visit someplace warm and I enjoy going to the beach to relax.
3) What 3 dishes will be on your Easter menu?
We usually spend Easter with my husband's aunt and cousins. We always have a big feast that consists of a beef roast, honey baked ham, and vegetables. My husband's aunt always serves her homemade Pizza Rustica Meat Pie and Spaghetti Pie.
1) Pizza Rustica Meat Pie
I was lucky to be given the recipe to make Spaghetti pie by a different aunt. Here is the recipe to make Spaghetti Pie.
2) Spaghetti Pie
For dessert, we always have fruit, cake, cookies, pastries, coffee, and espresso. I always bring assorted desserts for this Easter celebration.
One year we made and decorated cupcakes with pastel frosting and added peeps on top of the cupcakes. We will make something fun like that again this year to bring for Easter dessert.
3) Dessert - Cupcakes with Peeps
Thanks for stopping by to read my Three Things April. Hope you all have a great day!
