Have to put that name in quotes, of course, since she’s NOT A GRANDMOTHER YET! (All together now— SIGH.)
We had a lovely day of quasi-adventure yesterday. Sheils brought her new TomTom to Maryland so we could use it to figure out how to get to places I never go… you know, like the library and the mall. Seth and I continue to be pro-map people so I doubt there’s a GPS system in our future (that is NOT a hint) but it was kinda fun to see how ole’ Tom (not to be confused with Uncle T-Dawg) told us to get around town. I didn’t like the route to the mall, but I will say that he enlightened me as to a more direct way to the library.
So we walked around the mall– made some returns, made some purchases. Shared the Pizzeria Uno lunch special. Each had a bubble tea. Came home, napped. Made a fabulous pot of Winter Minestrone soup from the current issue of Cooking Light (left out the fennel and substituted spinach for the swiss chard for any of you subscribers out there) and played some Skip-Bo. Seth got home from his favorite multicultural class sometime during the Skip-Bo tournament and assured us that watching us play was riveting entertainment. And I’m sure he was telling nothing but the truth.
