My sister must have loved me about 2 years ago. She had asked me to give a
wedding shower for her daughter. Not a problem. I planned the menu, fairly
simple preparation but quite an exotic assortment of foods. We had planned
on a luncheon and hoped to kill enough time with that to dispense with the
usual games. Then everyone who chose would stay, the men would join us and
swim away the pm and we would do a cookout for dinner. My DH was ill so it
would have provided a nice change for him. Due to a rapid decline in his
health.. the location had to be changed and at the last minute I had to bow
out entirely on the shower. I couldn't even help with food prep as he was
in hospital 50 miles away.
