I was all psyched to see Sunshine today, but I failed to realize that this is also the final day of the Uptown Art Fair. All of the street parking was blocked off and I didn’t want to see the movie badly enough to pay nine bucks to park in a lot. I need to catch up on some things here at home, so it’s probably just as well. The staff at the Lagoon Theater was starting to greet me by name, which was a little embarrassing.
Last night’s party was great fun, but I’m starting to think I should throw another party just to get rid of all this excess food.
A post-party party? Now, that sounds like a good plan.
An advice I got from a Dutch friend ( you know Dutch people are generally regarded as thrifty or penny-saving!) was: always invite two groups of people, the second group the day after!
I didn’t intend to follow his advice, but happened to have prepared an awful quantity of goulash saturday. My best friend and her husband came to eat the rest yesterday evening. We sat in the garden. My friend was happy not to have to do any cooking, as it was scorching hot.
