Sleepy time

There's seems to be no end to the kindness and hospitality here in Winnipeg. We were invited to another family's house for dinner this evening, which was truly enjoyable. It was mostly a family affair, but a friendly, inviting family with whom it was easy to feel comfortable.

The funniest was the grandmother, a sixty-something mother of five, who got more and more talkative as the evening wore on. She was a feisty character, who enjoyed her bits of naughtiness. She kept us in stitches by the unexpected things that flew from her lips. I actually caught the phrase "pussy-whipped", though I don't know to whom it referred.

Lots of good wine, turkey dinner, and laughs ease the pain of the five inches of snow that fell this weekend.
