Life has been so good to me lately.
Take last night for example. It was the perfect evening, as far as I'm concerned; exactly the kind of night that brings me the maximum amount of joy. Good friends over for dinner consisting of a roasted starch with lots of olive oil, some kind of veggie drenched in homemade-from-scratch cheesesauce and steak, followed by wii and good-natured rivalry. That's all it takes to make me really happy. That's it. People. Food. Games.
I love a dinner party. Whether it be two couples or ten. There's something about the gathering of interesting people with big hearts (a very apt way to describe all of my friends) mingling over tasty vittles and stories, then top it all off with a chance to play together, whether it be wii or boardgames or old-fashioned Victorian parlour games. How often do we get a chance to take an evening to play anymore? Always so busy and so tired... when the opportunity presents itself, it begins to feel like magic to me.
My bachelorette was last Saturday. Not your typical bachelorette, but more of an extended dinner party like I described above. Lots of gin and charades. And those aforementioned friends with big hearts. It was such a wonderful night. It's been such a wonderful week.
I have such a wonderful life.
it makes me very happy that you can't rant.
