My mom is here. She sauteed broccoli with garlic and toasted sesame seeds for dinner. So delicious. Thea, who is visiting, ran out for the broccoli. Val made fabulous cabbage slaw and tuna steaks. I chopped and cooked yams. We nourished ourselves, an unexpected assortment of humans (and one dog, hopeful, under the table), content to be together.
There will be music tomorrow night, and Mom stays through the weekend. I am so glad to have her here (and not just for her gardening and housecleaning skills). Val’s off to Chicago Friday for a few days. Tuley just waits to see what will come her way.
Thanks for the music, the notes, the hugs.
