Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Dude, we scored reservations at The French Laundry! For lunch the Friday we are in the Napa area. Can't believe it- I had a whole plan how to attack the issue, and while I was trying to work the phones this afternoon Tom went on line and scored the 1 lunch table for 2 available on Open Table. I had set my alarm for 3am EST this morning to try to score that table on OT, as I'd heard that they opened up at midnight PST the day 2 months before the date. I guess they opened it up at 10am PST instead, and Tom snagged it!

Dude, we scored reservations at The French Laundry!

Woohoo! Anthony Bourdain just felt a twinge of jealousy.

Betsy and her family ate there recently and it sounded amazing.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Beth, it is so much easier to tease him when he's sick.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Happy Birthday, Empress!!! May your day be full of cake and love and pampering!

Now tagless for your comfort.

Happy Birthday, Aimee!

Nora, that's awesome!

sj, I hope TCG is feeling better. DH is also pretty bad at being sick, which I can understand.

We took the kids to the beach today. In spite of the overcast sky, it was lovely. It's a small, safe beach where the kids can frolic and I think it's one that I could take them to by myself. Which I hope to do this week, since the weather is supposed to be warm enough FINALLY.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Aww, I hope TCG feels better soon.

Daniel and I just split a package of Coconut M&Ms. Teh Nom.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

JB summer Brew ( kolsch style ) Josephbrau brewing co in SJ, CA has been deemed yummy and refreshing by our household.

Which is interesting partly because we don't drink lots of beer around here -- and often have divergent tastes when it comes to beer
