Singing at dinner! I had today off, and so I got to make a lovely dinner of basil (from our garden), cherry tomatoes, garlic and spaghetti. We added rosemary-and-sea salt bread from Safeway, salad, and it was a perfect meal -- I even resurrected the pound cake with chocolate sauce and whipped cream that I made for a dinner party two weeks ago.
Rachel was goofing around and exclaimed, "Hey, what's cooking?" To which Drew and I replied by starting to sing, "Hey, good lookin'. What ya got cookin'? How about cookin' something up with me?"
This was a song I sang to her a lot when she was a toddler and I commuted to Salem with her, the year Drew was in New York.
It didn't matter. She clamped her hands to her ears and howled in protest.
"Do you know how LUCKY you are to have parents who sing??" I told her.
"Not OLD FOLK SONGS!!" she exclaimed.
Drew and I burst out laughing, and we couldn't explain to her why we found it so funny.
