Darryl, Rome’s friend Vittorio, from the co-op where they both live, here only two months from Italy and finishing up his degree at UCLA, then Angela, Rome, me, Lilly.

Lilly got to dye her hair purple because she has no missing assignments, and I forgot the parsley so the kids went out to get some at Vons.


Missing is the mashed potatoes and gravy, everyone’s favorite, and all the desserts, and the counter full of delicious appetizers.
I took home one of the desserts Angela made and ate it all for breakfast on Friday.
A couple days before Thanksgiving I bought myself this pumpkin pie just to see if it was good. It Was Good. Surprisingly so, the choice of spices and the spice level hit the spot. The crust was only ok, so over the course of 3 days I ate the entire inside of the pie. I did do that.

Angela’s photo – Dude spent the holiday weekend with his half-brother Oliver, which is always so adorable.
