SATURDAY, March 27, 2021 Broadway Market

 Peggy and David invited me to go along to the BROADWAY MARKET.   It is a public market in Buffalo that is open all year but it gets very busy in the few weeks before Easter and seems to specialize in Polish items and traditions.   I met up with them at their house at ll:15 a.m. and we headed to Buffalo.  We stopped at Freedom Church hoping to see the beginning of the second Easter Egg Hunt, but we realized we would have to wait a long time, so we decided to leave.  When we got to the market, we got a very good parking spot and only had to walk a little ways to one of the entrances.  

We walked around to see what vendors were there and what items were offered,



and then we found a table, which David held for us while Peg and I went to Babcia's and ordered lunch.  I ordered two sides.

      The golumbki is like stuffed cabbage and is very tasty!

The other times in the past when I wanted to get potato pancakes from Babcia's they were all out, so I was glad to be able to get some today.  They were great!


We ran into Pam Campanini and her friend Mary there.
I purchased some items from a produce stand for Peggy and I, and then we all got baked goods from 
When we got back to Lockport, we went to Aldi's and purchased a ham for Easter and some other items.

 Easter Sunday:  I slept fairly well last night.  While getting ready for church, I put on GAITHER SING-A-LONG 2025 !!!!   And indeed, I did sing along.  When I got to church a full half hour before the ten forty five service was going to start, the parking lot was ALMOST FULL.  There was one empty spot in the front, and in the back was almost full.  I parked in the very last pull out spot in the row.  Church was great!  I sat with Jan, Linda Stein and Marlene whose daughter and a male friend had joined her.  When church was over,  I gave Peggy a ride home and she changed clothes and she and I and David went to ANTONIO's for Easter dinner.  This was our third year doing this.  I treated them because David's eightieth birthday is coming up in eight or nine days.  I ate some cheesecake for desert and took a couple of LACTO pills to help with that.  When we were driving home, we were on Hoover Road when I reali...

Sunday March 31st through Tuesday April 1st, 2025

 SUNDAY:  After church, Marsha, her daughter Colleen, Lori and I decided to go out for lunch.  We had a hard time deciding which place to go, but finally decided on DENNYS.  I arrived first and the parking lot was NOT full, but as I waited for the others, people kept coming and I could see lots of tables waiting to be cleaned up and workers rushing around, so I decided that they were probably understaffed.  I went back out to the parking lot to wait for the others.  Marsha and Colleen drove in and I suggested we go to Arby's next door.  They drove over, and I waited for Lori.  She did not want to go to Arbys since she was there a day or so ago, so she and I decided to go to APPLEBEES, and I went over to Arbys to tell Marsha and Colleen, who had already ordered and were waiting for their food.  I apologized for all the changes.  Lori and I met up aet Applebees, and we both had the meal deal special, a drink fries and either a burger or ch...

 SUNDAY:  I got up a bit earlier than usual today because I had things to do to get ready for the COUSINS GATHERING later on here at my house.  Church was very good.  I went to DOLLAR TREE and purchased three bags of ice before going home.  When I got home, I started setting the backyard up with chairs and tables and filled my good cooler with ice and drinks.  Gail arrived first and Peggy and David arrived a few minutes later. Then Mike arrived.  He gave us the sad news that his wife Janie was just diagnosed with breast cancer, after a routine mammogram, a second mammogram and then a biopsy.  He said it was caught very early and Janie seems to be accepting the news pretty well.   David set up his grill in the garage and I brought the meat out.  He seemed disappointed that I only provided FOUR (very large) hot Italian sausage.  I suggested we cut them in half, but he did not seem to want to do that.  He cooked both the hot ...
