Good Eats to Come!

My sister is getting married in July, and I spent my lunch hour with her, her fiance, and our parents, sampling some of the great eats that will be served at the Lemp Grand Hall reception. We tried roast beef, pasta con broccoli, chicken, cheddar mashed potatoes and some of the best freakin' salad dressing ever! Although they will only offer one brand of beer, they will have a fully stocked bar, which means my plan of drinking only Long Island Iced Teas will be fulfilled. Her wedding is going to be such a blast!

Not a blast is riding in a car when either of my parents are driving, unless one enjoys hearing sharp intakes of breath, cursing, and namecalling for the duration of the trip. Every day, I see more and more where some of my not-so-wonderful traits come from, and it's kind of depressing. I want to have patience and be relaxed, but it is certainly not in my gene pool.

When we were finished tasting, sheets of rain met us at the door, and I had left my umbrella in the car. Is it ironic if the rain is on your tasting-food-for-the-wedding day?
