Thanksgiving at a students house, totally chaotic,(fun but not slow and serene by any means....) conversation wise,
the husband and wife were cooking in the kitchen and nobody was listening
to anybodys comments. We were drinking champange(just a tich) and laughing
but really not connecting. The meal was outrageously good. The husband use to be
a chief at a very fancy restaurant, now he is a design manager for Yaughts.
It was fun. The wife had a beautiful home, airy and uncluttered. I liked the hal-o-peon-yo squash casserole with the cheeze topping
the best, although everything was great. The salad we brought was topped with Basil from
my garden....yummy. We did a little karate at the end. It was fun.
So far the best part of today was getting an email from Shane about
values and unfinished business...I decided to take a stab at mine:
