The Woollies went home about 30 minutes ago. “A feast.” “You’ve set a new standard.” “Can we come back here next month.” All these compliments were the direct result of Kate’s skill as a cook. She assembles recipes, parcels out work, gets stuff done. Her food is delicious and fresh. Much of our meal came from the garden.
We sang When You’re Sixty-Four to Kate over dinner and sang her happy birthday just before every left. As she said, “It was a Norwegian birthday.” Meaning she worked a lot.
Folks liked the garden viewed from the upstairs deck. Bill and Tom and Scott commented on the vegetable garden and the fire pit. We don’t get that many people through here in the course of a year so it was nice to have other’s reaction to what we do. The Woollies also liked the renovation project Kate headed up. A talented gal and I’m lucky to have her in my life. As I have felt since I got to know her 20 years ago.
The topic for the meeting focused on American identity. More on this tomorrow when I’m not so fried. Having people up drains me.
