Z and Grandma P!My Friday was way busier than expected...and a lot of things came my way that brightened up my day. 1) My tailor delivered my brand new saree...its beautiful, 2) Z took me out to eat...one less meal I had to cook, 3) Spent time with our adopted family here, 4) We were invited to our milk guy's house and met his family...
But the best part of my Friday was when I called Grandma P. We talked about Tiger her cat, who unfortunately has arthritis. We talked about how Tiger and Newman (Dabby's dog) get along so well...Newman is a big love able golden retriever mix and moves about the speed of a large bear, I miss that dog. We talked about my day to day life here, she was tickled pink when I told her that our milk is delivered fresh from the animal to our door every morning. She was raised on a share crop farm in Tennessee and that is how she grew up getting milk. I told her how I make her meatloaf and beef stew for people here...and then she gave me cooking pointers. It was just like sitting down with her in her living room across the ocean and having a conversation. I talked to her until midnight (It was one in the afternoon her time)...I did not want to let her go but Z had already fallen asleep in the chair next to me, so for the sake of my other favorite person I said my goodbyes and we went to bed.
