family time

It's a great feeling to be in a home with a family. Tonight I was at my so-cal family's house for about 6 hours. Looking at Alec's transformers, styling Emma's hair, drinking tea, and getting gourmet cooking lessons. Their Dad is an amazing chef! I had my own private "cooking with John" lesson. He made tapenade, tzatziki sauce, feta with spices, kale, asparagus, and avocado, which he served with sprouts and sprouted grain tortillas. Not your average Taco Tuesday, it was amazing! I sat with their parents and talked about life. Then I read to the kids in bed. I love feeling like a part of a family, if only distantly.
