Dinner
Tue Jul 20 2004

I got a sort of last minute invitation to dinner at a friend's house. She likes to cook, but doesn't care about eating alone. So once she has a meal going, she'll invite a friend to come and partake.

And I was chosen tonight.

I was about to go to the fridge, the freezer, or the pantry and try to decide what to fix when the phone rang. Good timing, Lady!!

Anyway, I'm stuffed to the gills, about to let a full tummy lull me to sleep.

However, I have to invite her to my place now because I described to her my "famous" macaroni and cheese dish, and she invited herself to try it. Now, I just have to decide when to fix it, then give her a call.

I even drank a little wine this evening. Since she's accustomed to having wine with her meals, I could use some suggestions as to what kind goes with mac&cheese. There'll be a huge salad with my own special dressing, and dessert. Ice cream, maybe. But not being a wine connoiseur, I could use some suggestions.

Got my car insurance updated today. Been putting it off, and driving uninsured for awhile (hangs her head). The company I was insured with has declined to continue insuring in California, so I had to find another company. Same agent, different insurer. Got a really good deal, too. Now I don't have to watch so carefully for cops who might want to stop me for whatever reason. Do they need a reason?

I'm a careful driver. And I come to a full stop at stop signs, but must confess that I do tend to be in a hurry. Probably just as well, though, since California drivers tend to be lead-footed. I got honked at and glared at for going 65 in the "slow" lane not too long ago. Tch!

Well, that pretty much covers my day today.

Shalom

    phew, glad nothing happened to you whilst driving uninsured. i really learnt my lesson after being driven into by somebody else when in the company car, so it was entirely not my fault, and not getting around to getting the warrant updated (which i believe may have voided insurance)

    In a hurry? That's putting it mildly. ;-)

    Ever ride in the truck with our friend C?

    Now THERE'S an adventure... !

    Yes, just what is that special dressing all about? Can't help you on the wine though, I haven't a clue.
