Just really lovely. The tablecloth is magnificent — I thought it was embroidery at first.

Thank you! It’s funny how the tablecloth felt a little strange at first, it didn’t seem like it was something that was going to last. But it has tracings of the kids’ little hands and my fathers, and lists of people who were at the table. A living artifact!

i love receiving food but i feel just like you when cooking with others. it is just too hard to assign tasks, and improvisation requires advanced planning which i rarely do. thank you for sharing the story of the burnt spaghetti. love to you all in your grief.
