Daughter L brought these Godiva chocolate truffles home last week. She had been in the store and they told her it was a set price for as many truffles as she could stuff into the box, so she did a really good job of it. I tried the creme brulee truffle, it was hard to stop at just one!
Husband M and I got together with good friends over the weekend. A friend had a potluck party at her house on Saturday night. I elected to bring a fruit tray of blackberries, pomegranate, clementines, strawberries, red and green grapes. It was colourful and healthy. One of the guests was saying she attended a cousin's funeral recently. She thought we shouldn't wait for a funeral to connect with old friends and long lost relatives, which is what happened to her. Another interesting thing was when this lady's husband, who works in Europe says he went to visit his parents in Germany. He made the mistake of downloading a movie, and was billed $800 euro for 3 seconds of download time. Piracy is taken very seriously in Germany compared to North America. It was an expensive learning experience.
The next day we went to a nice restaurant with good friends. It was great to get caught up on each other's news and exchange gifts.
