Very well written.  A fun read.  Thank you for visiting my blog.  I wouldn't have realized you had a new post if you hadn't.  I've been rather lax lately about keeping up on Blogit.  I'm sure glad others are writing.

Start, my dear bro.....

I can so clearly see this scene....smell the pig, taste the punch and want to hug your mom!  Oh, for the simplicity and verve of just going with it you describe so joyfully (and proudly) here....it is easy to see this woman raised such a talented man!

It sounds like a very interesting get together.

It's nice that your mom was doing that. Not many people 'host' parties anymore. They usually just have it catered . . .

Delightful as always! Your Mom and mine must have been sisters in spirit...

Imagine if they'd tried something exotic and complicated!

Well all I can say, is they tried and one cannot be good at everything. A pig roast on the lawn and crates of beer another time would make life easier.
