Talking About My Girls
Mary came over for dinner today!
Jenny made four cheese lasagna and Mary made lemon meringue pie, we had a bottle of Chateau Rouge and it was basically the Best Meal. A cook and a baker, I am a lucky man.
I think we were a little hazy-happy by the end, and what with Mary and Jenny in the same room we never kept to a topic long enough for me to write what we talked about. I don't know what it is that these women do that they can always understand each other's vague statements, even having just only met.
Jenny swept off to do dishes for some reason before coming back with the dessert, so Mary and I had a bit of a serious talk about friends- and when Jenny returned with cake somehow it immediately jumped to 'recipes gained from grandmothers'.
I didn't even know Mary had a grandmother! ;)
What with my girls apparently getting along like a house on fire (did you get a standing invitation to the Book Club while I wasn't looking, Mary? You've got to come to a Quiz Night first.) I didn't really do much more than relax and enjoy by the end, haha.
Jenny was in her element, of course, hostess as always. I'm half-surprised she hasn't tried to open her own restaurant, to be honest, just hired the chefs and waltzed about the dining area. (Lovely image, isn't it?)
Anyway. It's nice to have a night in with friends. Should have them more often. Bill, I don't suppose you and Millie are free next Friday?
