Back Together Again

June 20th, 2018

Caroline and Anna are both visiting, so the whole family is here, if but briefly.  It's great to see the three girls together.  There's a lot of silliness and teasing and dry wit and biting humor, but also a lot of laughing.  Last night, for instance, they discussed, at length, the subtle distinctions among four personality traits:  shady, salty, spicy, and saucy.  Kate identified patterns of emoji usage that would be associated with each trait.  There also always seems to be a fair amount of discussion of hair product.  

At the beginning of the dinner, one of the girls asked Glenn if he wished he had had a son.  He answered, diplomatically, the only way one could.  It was not clear that his answer would not have changed over the course of the dinner conversation, though.  

We had dinner at Les Fables de la Fontaine, where we all ate very well and happily.  (I feel like we're finally hitting our stride, restaurant-wise, six weeks before we have to leave.)  Here is a photo of "l'oeuf parfait," which I had as a starter.  Everything was fabulous.  Glenn's lamb and couscous main dish was especially delicious.
