Day 17

Today I am grateful for a lovely afternoon and evening spent at the friends’ house. The acceptance that elaborate dinner parties are a thing of the past (and possibly the future) and that for the time being parents of young children should focus on feeding everyone instead 🙂 (as our friend nicely put it) makes for a very enjoyable experience amidst the chaos of assembling tacos and burritos for 4 adults and 4 children with very different food preferences.
