It is Saturday and the hotel room with no drawer pulls is an oasis of calm. When I checked in, they gave me three key cards, and I have offered to auction off the remaining two key cards to my siblings if they want to sit in a quiet room for two hours. Honestly, I could probably fund my entire stay that way if we just had another couple little kids running around.
We had the big family dinner this evening, and I was at the three-person vegetarian's table with my nephew and his partner. The food was excellent and we got to catch up, so it was fun. I'm always responsible for bringing the almond-rice stuffed peppers, and every year they taste slightly different because I measure ingredients with my heart, as they say. I'm not a great chef, but this is a recipe that can't really be screwed up.
How do people with small children survive until the children are grown? I don't understand it, but I'm glad most parents seem to enjoy it (or at least pretend they do).

Fosters from last year! Clockwise from top: Witch Hazel, Tweetie, and Taz. What an adorable bunch!
