Life has felt full of wonderfully moments lately.
And then… We learned that our dear friend was heading towards an unexpected difficulty, it became clear that gathering before I left mattered more than ever.
I prepared a dinner that was fresh, abundant, and nourishing— food that would fill more than our plates. I hoped the evening would offer a heartfelt thank you, a reflection of years of friendship, and a reminder of the love we have shared. A healing grace.
We lingered around the table long after the meal was finished, talking, laughing, remembering, sharing mercies, offering comfort, and holding one another close in heart. The evening become more than a meal; a gift, hands held symbolically, prayers offered by hope and courage.
I will see you in August!
PS between bites and plates, Gabriel read and read. The Pickle lives in books.
