Tonight was one of those nights where I had to stop and think. This is an oddity for me, and it was brought on by the fact that my dad has not been to a place that I’ve called “home” since I lived on Kilborne Place. For those who may be unfamiliar with where I’ve lived<\/a> and when, I moved out of my Kilborne condo in November of 1999<\/em>. Frig.<\/p>\n

In any event, my Dad and his compadre Sue came over for dinner this eve, and it was most excellent. I gave them the grand tour, and I realised I really like what the place is turning into. A huge reason behind my being as happy with it as I am is due to Kristina, who has supplied a tonne of ideas and helped me figure out what I wanted to do with my living space. It is warm, comfy, and I love it.<\/p>\n

Dinner consisted of Lee’s white chicken chili, complete with a dollop of fat-free sour cream and fat-full old cheddar cheese. I served whole wheat tortillas and a baby romaine with red onion, grape tomoatoes, mushrooms, and pine nut salad, and a really nice pinot grigio. We all sampled a wee dram in lieu of dessert (which I totally forgot about), and it was a really nice eve.<\/p>\n

I must have more people over more often, it’s way too much fun. The really scary part is that Dad and Sue are my first dinner guests, and I moved in here mid-April last year. Firk.<\/p>\n

I’m thinking some dinner invitations will be in the mail, soon, for some folks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
