This summer has been a special treat to be all together in Nova Scotia. First off we were not sure Ken and I could get to spend the summer here and secondly Dave and Irene until just recently were cleared for David to fly from Hamilton to Halifax. Dave has developed heart problems so is getting used to a new normal. But we are having a good time together along with Don and Doreen, our friends of over 60 years.
Dave and Irene suggested we continue the catering while they are still here. At first I thought it unnecessary but Dave suggested that Irene and Doreen may enjoy the break, so I arranged for the caterers to bring dinner each evening for the 6 of us. It has turned out to be delightful. Every evening around 5:30 Faye brings us a surprise dinner which we thoroughly enjoy. Tonight we dined on a beef tenderloin vegetable soup and fresh buns along with a large summer salad full of spinach and strawberries. Chocolate mousse tarts for dessert. The River Bend folks were not sure they could continue the service but with our new program of having them just bring the food plus eliminating the Saturday and Sunday they were able to continue. And we are happy they were able to accommodate us. Every night we dine around 6:30 and enjoy our home cooked meal that none of us has had to prepare.
I can brag because it was not my idea. Dave and Irene came up with the suggestion and have paid the bill. we are all grateful that we are enjoying this summer together and we are especially grateful that we 6 are enjoying our delicious mystery dinners every night. Gold stars for Dave and Irene.
