I had a social Sunday. After church, I ran into some family friends and they invited me over to chat at their table at the McDonald's restaurant nearby. A daughter in the family had recently gotten married. I was shown fabulous wedding photos on her dad's cell phone. Wedding photos always bring me near to tears for some reason, I guess it's such a beautiful, sentimental event. Coincidentally, I had gone to university at the same time as one of the dad's brothers and he had come over from Australia for his niece's wedding. I was treated like a long lost friend! It's amazing how we can remember people from over thirty years ago, and be able to catch up on the past somewhat. In fact, they said the occasion marked 46 years since all the dad's siblings had been able to re-unite. They are spread all over the world.
Then I had to run off and go about my business. I had to go to the Roger Mooking Executive Chef series downtown (see yesterday's post). It was a busy day.

Nice to catch up on people from the past! Have a lovely, Valerie
ReplyDeleteIt is amazing that you get to see people from long ago! Glad you had fun with them for a bit!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like a lovely time, Christine. I also get emotional with weddings. They are very special.
ReplyDeleteIsn't that sweet?!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice time! I always cry at weddings, too.
ReplyDeleteI'm never really emotional at weddings, though most males rarely are.
ReplyDeleteChance encounters with friends is so good, nothing planned it just seems to happen. Love your caption too, that is so true :-)
ReplyDeleteNow that is one good question.
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately I am lost with an answer :)
Of course that's what a light in the fridge means. Lol. It's so that we can see the cake that's waiting for us in there!

ReplyDeleteIts almost 12 midnight, and I am edging towards the fridge :-)
ReplyDeleteA social Sunday indeed! How wonderful to run into friends and see photos of such a loving event. Funny placard!
ReplyDeleteLove these kinds of reunions. So glad you got to take part and then share with us.
