This Church is absolutely beautiful. It would have been great except during the Gospel, Fastolph proclaimed &#8220;my pee pee&#8217;s coming out. It&#8217;s coming out <i>now<\/i>.&#8221; My husband who is on vacation this week, went through the Church looking for the bathroom and found it was off the altar. The priest was not happy at all!<br \/>\nWe packed a picnic lunch for the park. I packed sushi, and the kids and I pigged out on sushi,wasabi peas and carrot sticks. The kids thought sushi was great until they saw one of the other families had a whole Freihoffer&#8217;s chocolate cake. When they were offered cake, the kids ran over with pathetic looks on their faces. The look was &#8220;Starving Children&#8221;.<br \/>\nAfterwards we <a href=\"http:\/\/www.leah.org\/\">lobbied over home schooling regulations with the Protestant home schooling group<\/a>. The speakers were all Protestant and afterwards one came up to us, asked us where we attended Church. When we mentioned we were Catholic (there are tow St. Peter&#8217;s one Episcopal and one Catholic), he told us how much he is working to see inter-faith discussion or something. It was odd because I never met someone who is Protestant and said &#8220;Oh, you are Protestant. Well that is OK. We are trying to work with Protestants more and more.&#8221; I realise I am not adequately putting into words how odd it was when we mentioned we were Catholic.<br \/>\nWe then went to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nysm.nysed.gov\/\">The New York State Museum <\/a> and looked at, um, stuff.  You know, stuff in a museum.<br \/>\nNo April 29, 2003 could be complete though without <a href=\"http:\/\/www.benjerry.com\/scoop_shops\/free_cone_day\/index.cfm\">Free Ice Cream from Ben and Jerry&#8217;s!<\/a> After dessert we came home and had dinner.
