  1. Not sure what if anything we'll have. Mum had lunch out with friends and had a cup of ham and split pea soup and a grilled cheese sandwich. Far more than she normally eats at lunch so she's not hungry. I too, ate lunch out. I went to a nearby Brixx Pizza and ordered a rosemary chicken and wild mushroom pizza. Roast chicken with fresh rosemary, wild mushrooms, carmelized onions with gouda, mozzarella cheeses on an olive oil brushed crust baked in a woodfired oven. I didn't eat it all. If I should become hungry I'll eat what's left.
  2. What do you think the lad put on to replace the pair you pilfered? A nice snug pair in Black Watch tartan plaid.

    The Potluck

    All these interspersed acts of love brought me to tears. What a beautiful story. Thank you.
  4. Just how big a casserole are we talkin'? Hopefully not a 9×13.
  5. Plaid boxer-briefs. Trust me on this 'cause I'm a professional.
  6. Yes please and thank you.

    Star of Wonder

    I have a friend who was born on Christmas. She never had a birthday party because her family celebrated Christmas in a big way. The year of her 30th birthday her sister-in-law stripped all of the Christmas decorations from her diningroom and put up birthday decorations then closed the frenchdoors to the room. When it was time to eat the meal her sister-in-law openned the doors and said "Surprise". My own birthday falls on January 3rd so I had a few of those combined gifts though my mum tried to keep them separate. Now I think it's kinda cool that my birthday is one of the 12 days of Christmas.
  10. Sorry to hear that.
  11. We already know that Page's diet would kill us but he's young and immortal and not any worse than we were way back when. Remember how tasty those double quarter-pound patty mastodon burgers were?

    Angelhair Pasta

    I'll have to try this. I can get very fresh scallops here at mum's. The ocean is only five miles away and the boats land fresh seafood every day.

    Kimo Calendar

    What lovely/loving glimpses into each month. They brought such pleasure. Thanks for sharing them with us.
  14. Yeah, sure you will ...
  15. Hence it being a unilateral agreement.

    Chapter 2

    I like how you brought this to a resolution/close. Neither is where they were nor where they'll finally be but rather both are now aware of the journey before them. You write this type of story extremely well.

    Chapter 1

    I'm curious to see where you take us with these two. Excellent start.
  18. Has taken quite a liking to the lad. Go pilfer from Val if you dare.

    Priority Mail

    Thanks Page.
  20. Thanks. I promise to take extra special care with him.
  21. Do you think he would like a warm freshly baked chocolate chip cookie? Mum and I baked a batch this morning.
  22. Impressive. You ventured into a new direction with a topic sure to evoke emotional response and came away with an excellent result. Namasté.

    Christmas Eve

    I like the bits of nostalgia in this chapter, prods the old memory. It's not a skirt ... hot Cuban in plaid. I think you've got another hit.
  24. Of course you need to be strong for your family but they need to be strong for you too. This is something that effects all of you. I hope the medicine helps.
