I went to potluck last night, for the first time in far too long. As usual, I didn't get there until after dinner had started (I never aim to be late, but always manage to be late for this event).
Someone asked what I'd brought in the bag, and when I said "bread," there was a huge cheer (surprising me completely) from half a dozen people: there was much cheese there, but they'd wanted bread to put it on.
Highlights: I got to hear Daniel (I think he's 3) sing through his whole repertoire, including the alphabet song, and many permutations of baa baa black sheep (white sheep, purple sheep, different colored birds...). And see the amazingly matching haircuts some friends got. And hear about interesting medical stuff. And eat lots of strawberries (It's been a strawberry week; I've had strawberries at least once a day every day this week.). And give a head-skritch or 2. And give/get some excellent hugs.
It was good to see people. I should go more often.
Oh, and seeing brilliant flashes of lightning on the way home was cool (didn't rain before I got in).

Date: 2002-05-03 10:49 am (UTC)I was going to go, but decided it was more important, given my recent slackfulness, that I work out, and by the time I was all done with that and washed up, it felt too late to show up. I'll be there next week, of course, and I was wondering if you might be so generous as to make a cake. :)

Date: 2002-05-03 10:58 am (UTC)Not sure if I'm going next week or not (haven't thought past this over-full weekend, actually). I usually tend to make main course items if I'm going to be there for it, so I have something to eat.
(However, if there's time, I may be making a cake you can eat for
