(All about last night) 
Things my dad made #1: This fountain. In our front yard. Zero point for all our Christmas decorative festiveness. Before I leave, I’ll stand next to it, for scale.
Things my mom made #1: meatballs two ways (and yes, those fries were outta sight!)
Spot the nutcracker. (NB: I am a friend to all nuts).
A classic combo: coffee and crackers (don’t knock it til you dunk & suck it) / memories of a restaurant kid ☕️

Things my mom made #2: biscotti, two times (🎶it’s the most wonderful time of the year🎶)
“If Canada had a soul (a doubtful proposition, Moses thought) then it wasn't to be found in Batoche or the Plains of Abraham or Fort Walsh or Charlottetown or Parliament Hill, but in The Caboose and thousands of bars like it...” - Solomon Gursky Was Here, Mordecai Richler
Koulouria / S cookies. Food is love.
Today, I asked my mother to take a photo of me next to the fountain my father made. We’ll try again, before I go.
Things my mother makes #3: one hell of a soup!
Rule #1 of cooking: everything tastes better when you cook it in a round pan (The Poetics of Taste)
My mother slays potatoes. And because she can, so do I.
The pipers piped, the ladies danced; joy to the world.
The day woke up like this, and from there, it unfurled into a perfection of cabbage rolls.
Sisters & Sisters (made up of Mother & Aunt, Daughters & Nieces).
I used to have bangs. She used to be this small.

When I saw this, I couldn’t not ask my niece to paint me and my sisters. These are her parents - she nailed it. I am so happy I have a piece of art made by her to bring back with me to Dublin.
