I read her e-mail, and felt an eerie deja-vu. It makes you wonder about the nature of friendships. How do you ever know you can really trust someone?

Last night, my house was turned into a gourmet restaurant! Well, perhaps I flatter myself with this description, but I did prepare a lovely dinner for the family. I've missed cooking ever so much. I made individual dishes; at my house, we usually make two or three dishes and grab what we want with rice. But not last night!

Last night, everyone had lemon-tarragon salmon, orange butter carrots, rice, and garlic stir fried asparagus. I ought to have taken a picture; I arranged each dish artfully as well.

The asparagus was a little raw, but other than that, everything else turned out quite well.

And today I'm going to bake a cake with my sis and Dan! It should be fun. And delish.
