@Soupe du jour and all:
Yes, we're online at the same time despite the six-hour time difference as i get up with the birds in the Spring. But i feel all that good energy slipping away now, i'm so hurt by my friend's rejection.
Oh well, i had a great time, the high-light of which was the party i threw -- very uncharacteristic for me and only the fourth party i've thrown in my life and i'm 54. I imagine YOU'VE thrown lots of parties, with your elite cooking and baking skills, serving exquisite hors d'oeuvres and meals.
My mom baked from scratch too, many types of quiche tarts, pigs-in-a-blanket, etc. She had this no-fail pastry recipe that's been lost over the years. I did a bit of baking as a teen to please my dad, but mostly i was too busy doing push-ups for gymnastics.
Once i made a Father's Day brunch and i made everything from scratch, right down to the tablecloth and napkin rings, this really cheerful green gingham. (I sewed as a teen too.) My dad got tears in his eyes and all choked up when he told my uncle about it.
But he didn't say a word to me.
Jane.
