No matter what my dietary needs have been over the years I have to say I have always been able to find something to eat no matter where we eat. Granted, some places have been very limited. In recent years I just check the menus on line and know in advance my options. Never have I made it an issue. If concerned, like on road trips, I pack snacks I like.

Greek food is about the best ever. if I had the option to eat it for a week, I wouldn't be sad/ disappointed. As much as I enjoyed the one lobster boil I ate, see,s like more than one on a trip would be a lot of butter... Moms never seem to get over the idea that food reflects on them, I think.

Sorry, but can we drop the subject? I shouldn't have posted about this here in the first place.

I'm sorry, Hil. I didn't mean to add to your stress.

Well, I'm here for another reason. My daughter just came out as bi to me, dh, and her younger brother. Her big brother wasn't here.

I hugged her and thanked her for telling me, and told her it was a privilege that she did. Her dad got a little flustered and said congratulations, which made her giggle, so I said it too. Her brother said he can't figure out what she'd like about men.

She didn't want to talk too much further, just wanted to come out on the last day of Pride Month, so I'm glad she felt welcome to do so.

That's sweet!

Cindy, that's a wonderful coming out story.

Sorry if anything I said upset you, Hil.

Cindy, I'm so glad your daughter feels so safe and supported by you and her dad and brothers (I'm going to assume her big brother will be just as supportive when he's home). I'm not surprised at the love and support, because you have a great, loving family. But all the same, it makes my heart happy to hear about it.

Hil, I'm sorry I added to your stress.

Cindy, that's really sweet, and I'm glad that she knew that she could trust you all enough to tell you.

I'm going to be going to the American Jewish Archives sometime this week to look at a nineteenth-century diary for a project for the genealogy class. That should be fun. (The assignment just said that we had to look at an original handwritten pre-twentieth-century manuscript, something like letters or a diary that would mention family members, and then read it and learn about the person and then research their family. There were a few libraries and archives in the area that looked like they had things that would work for the assignment, so I figured I'd go see the American Jewish Archives.)

That sounds cool, Hil!

Cindy that's super sweet, yay. I had a good pride, mostly. Felt like I would've liked to stay out/dance more on Friday/Saturday, but oh well. Hated the music and was tired. Didna bit more today. Best part was having a huge bunch of people over for brunch, on Saturday. I still have so much food, but it was super fun and people would've stayed for a long time if I hadn't kicked them out. I love having lots of friends and getting them together and introducing them and stuff!
