the past few days...

the other night tory and i had a small house warming soirée. she made the food, i provided the... um... moral support.



we had some friends over, both new and old.




but somehow, the next night tory was not tired of slaving away in the kitchen. so she cooked "the family" a hearty chicken dinner. and while they played scrabble, i took pictures of everybody. i even made some uncautious declerations about charlie...






later that night tory discovered that she may have what the parisians call "le grippe" and was oddly delighted about the whole thing...
