I've been bad about
not writing this week. There's not been
much going on - and we've been thinking about the upcoming wedding and
festivities. Let's face it, the
grandmother of the groom may be a necessary part of the genetics, but is pretty
low on the ceremonial totem pole. And
that's super with me! I just have to
show up, smile for the pictures, enjoy all the happiness, and have a good time.
I had my mani/pedi
this morning, and have gotten out the clothes I plan to wear (maybe). I'll get a haircut in the morning. Margaret's going to pick me up midday on Thursday, and we'll be off.
Locally, the big
thing around home has been the food.
When I moved in the food was really good - well known in the community
in fact. Over the last couple of months,
the long-time chef left (moving on to bigger things); the ownership of the
facility changed hands; a new chef and cooks were hired; the food supplier was
changed. This obviously was too many
coincidental things going on - and what suffered was the food. It went downhill dramatically and "the
natives got restless". We've had a
number of meetings on the subject and there's now one person (not me!)
spearheading things. And, although it's
spotty, the meals have gotten progressively better. Last night's grilled salmon, corn on the cob
roasted in the shucks, and rosemary potatoes comprised one of the best meals
we've had since I moved in. I didn't
order tonight's dinner (I assumed there would be lots of bell pepper), but
almost everyone said it was really awful.
There's another Food Committee meeting tomorrow afternoon. I wonder what that one will bring. Stay tuned.

And we have a woman
nominated for President of the U.S.!!!
