The changes in flowers according to the months and seasons is something I really missed. I'm so glad to be able to watch all these changes again.

We were having a fun dinner with friends in Cambridge and in walked Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck. I felt bad for wanting to spy on them having a normal dinner out.

The décor of the restaurant was really fun, and the food was great too.

Here is the prettiness I encountered on a walk on a rainy afternoon.

This elasticube was in in front of the science center. It was intriguing.

Baskin-Robbins Daiquiri Ice is my favorite ice cream flavor and has been since I was a kid. For the past few years, I hadn't been able to find it, try as I might. I was told it was seasonal, and then heard it was discontinued, which left me somewhat distraught.

A couple weeks ago, I sent an email to Baskin-Robbins to request that they bring the flavor back. I learned from their website that "The favorite Baskin-Robbins® flavor of Bing Crosby and Justin Timberlake was, and is, Daiquiri Ice." The statement made me sad because at the time, Daiquiri Ice wasn't, to my knowledge, available anywhere.

Tonight I was craving ice cream, and my husband and I walked over to Baskin-Robbins. Imagine my surprise when I saw a vat of my favorite, light blue-flavored treat! Daiquiri Ice was back! It's listed as a flavor of the month, and luckily I stopped by at the start of the month and not the end, so I can spend all of May enjoying (and stocking up on pints) of my favorite flavor. This gives me hope that Daiquiri Ice might maybe be back for good one day. Hooray!

Here's a photo of my partially devoured, two-scoop Daiquiri Ice sundae with strawberry topping and whipped cream, buts and (lucky me) two cherries!

There are beautiful blossoms on so many trees. It's lovely outside.
