Sun 27 May

Have to go to a Karlen family baptism today with Mass at St. Stan's and lunch at Holiday Inn. Have to take both Grandma and Leone, so you know I'm thrilled about it. Kurt and Barb are coming for dinner later so the day will be redeemed. I'm tired, very tired, so tired. Long day. The baptism party was fine, nice to see all the Karlen relations after all. The meal at Holiday Inn was quite good. I had less than 2 hours to prep for Kurt and Barb's dinner, but I managed to make the quinoa salad, homemade sangria, and a rhubarb crisp. I prepped the asparagus for roasting before they arrived, but sliced the pineapple for grilling after. The new grill ran out of gas so Bob and Kurt had to go fetch a new tank before I could grill the steaks.
