We're entering the season of cold, cold weather, so I've been nagging poor Drew to build fires for us at night. Rachel has taken up the call and echoes Mommy's requests, and we promised her all weekend that Daddy would build a fire Sunday, so after she got home from her friend Tessa's birthday party Drew lit a fire.
I made beef barley soup but it wasn't ready in time for dinner, so Drew decided to get takeout. Rachel and I were plopped by the fire; I was making entries in my checkbook and paying some credit card bills, and we were all feeling too cozy to move, so I broke my own rule and WE HAD TAKEOUT SUSHI NEXT TO THE FIRE. In the LIVING ROOM, no less. Rachel had a plate of pasta, Drew lay on his stomach eating, and I sat on the couch and placed my food on our one end table.
"This is so relaxing," Rachel said at one point. It's true, rules are made to be broken!
