Hot Apple Cider and Brie

Posted by kara

I keep thinking about my Uncle Beve (aka Uncle Steve).

Why? Because in the fall of 2005 he made really fancy hot apple cider (complete with cinnamon sticks), prepared some super-luxurious brie, and had a whole feast of delicious snacks waiting on the kitchen table. All for Sisters’ Weekend – the weekend of Christmas shopping and lots of eating with the ladies on Paul’s side.

I am disappointed that I won’t get to go to Sisters’ Weekend this year (especially since I didn’t get to go last year). Maybe it’s just the preggie in me longing for soft unpasteurized imported cheeses, the long days of walking around shopping for skinny clothes (read: non-maternity clothes), and the good gossip about weddings and babies. I wonder if Elise is going… I really want to hear about how her wedding planning is going. And I also want to talk about all the babies and babies-to-be… 😉

Next year! Next year I am going! Then I’ll be able to eat everything, drink everything, and walk around like a normal person! Huzzah!
