1. I am really appreciating my freezer -- I don't so much make a moussaka for supper as assemble it.
2. Tina brings a bottle of wine -- she says she selected it for the tasting notes on the label, which list its charms as black cherries, toasted wood and vanilla. I take a sip of Nick's and find the cherries, and the vanilla. I think the wood needs more time.
3. I go off to bed, and lie there dozing and reading poetry and listening to Nick and Tina laughing downstairs.
