Tender trappings

Jennifer will arrive shortly and she's bringing her new guy, Joe. This affair has very serious momentum, so Stan was sent outside to cut some fresh peonies for the table, as we rush to make our very best impression on the gentleman caller.

It's hot out and normally that's an excuse to leave the oven off. Not today. It was fired up hours ago for Roast Beef and gravy and other man food. Traps are set. Wine uncorked. Feel the heat. Poor Joe has no chance.

It's just the first day in the Summer of Love. Two Rolfsrud weddings ahead and now this. Steamy. Very steamy.
