Mimi's old flames

We enjoyed an impromptu dinner last night with not one, but TWO of Mimi's old flames. Margaret installed herself as the center of attention, as you can see below, and proceeded to eat everything she could get her hands on. The rest of us had a joyous time catching up and eating the tastiest pot-luck I've had in a long time.

M wiggled herself right into the center

first taste of pizza

This last photo is dedicated to Popo, who gave M this beautiful sweatshirt, as well as the shirt she destroyed with cheese, pizza and rice crackers in the preceding pictures.

"I love you, Popo!"

How fun! Who are flames #1 and #2. They look familiar but I can't place them.

Margaret looks so funny sitting in the circle with all the grownups. Looks like she's trying to be one of them, but the disguise isn't quite right!

So how did she take to the pizza? Was she able to get any off and eat it? She seemed pretty focused on it!

That last shot is precious. She looks so happy sitting there in her new clothes!

To enjoy more than modest success as a journalist, you must name names :)

Looks like you guys are having such a fun and peaceful time. Margaret looks adorable sitting right in the middle of everyone... almost like she is dessert. Pizza... wow... there is no turning back...baby food is just not going to taste as good. How nice to see old flames and actually be friends. I think that some of us have burned some bridges, and that scenario would never happen. Lucky Roz. Only a couple more days until John arrives. Can't wait for all of you to be together again.
We miss you guys,

Sarah! I can't get enough of pics of Margaret! I've been slipping in and out John's blog for the longest time but hardly attempted to leave a comment. Couldn't resist this time especially knowing that you are posting the blogs (not that I wouldn't leave anything for you John!). I was so so jealous when I heard that you met up with Victor and Leah a few weeks ago... Really miss ya...

Flame #2's wife looks like Marion McManus, at least from that photo --

Pizza is definitely the point of no return. Steak, lobster, escargot, all good things to come. Next time we go to Tonkichi, she's going to be eating, too -- and all too soon, we'll be ordering her her own meal...
