Well, today we had a great food day.  First lunch of turkey soup and samosas that Pat and Geoff brought yesterday – very yummy, and then a visit from the Liz, Gene, Electa and Quinn bearing gifts from Eataly.  For dinner we had the truffle agnolotti with a light vodka sauce that I improvised.  They were delicious!!  So rich and both David and I ate every bit.

Before dinner, we had a visit from Sheila and had a great conversation about lots of stuff, and about the History of the World in 100 Objects.  Tonight’s installment was a tag from King Den’s sandal.  King Den was an early Pharaoh in Egypt.  David was confuse as to why that was so important, but sometimes the author is including things that seem very pedestrian, but say something about politics and power.  In this case, there was an image of the King smiting an enemy.  A warning of sorts.  Anyway, it seemed like a stretch.  When Sheila left, she suggested that we walk her downstairs to the lobby.  It was a great bit of exercise for David, and even with all the folks coming and going, David held his own.

After dinner we watched a movie with Elizabeth McGovern which was a bit reminiscent of Downton Abbey called Cheerful Weather for the Wedding.  I thought it was quirky and funny, but David, not so much.  Then Dexter and Homeland.  Now, bed is calling.  We have a busy week with Doctors and therapists and getting ready for the trip – one week from tomorrow we will be in San Francisco!
