It is a very exciting time. I'm getting ready to
start my new job as Dean
and we're happy for Suzanne's good health. So, we decided to
have a celebration to share our joy.
The table was all set with breads
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0005
and relishes
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0006
that made for a nice view
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0007
as the hoagies
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0008
hid the pennies
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0009
in the kitchen and the portobello foccaccia's
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0010
were where the plants
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0011
had been as the fruit stood skewered
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0012
and the desserts
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0013
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0014
looked even better than the con queso
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0015
dip. The birthday hat
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0016
was ready for Rich Gittleman and the clock
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0017
said that people would be arriving soon as the final breads
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0018
dips
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0019
and non-pareils
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0020
kept the glass candy
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0021
happy and the sauce
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0022
amused Ben
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0023
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0024
as we got the fish
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0025
ready and the table
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0026
was ready for the company.
Jane made her way down the steps
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0027
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0028
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0029
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0030
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0031
in time for the arrival of the Dobbs-Allsop's
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0032
and Peter Kramer
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0033
while Kathy Klockenbrink
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0034
brought her platter.
Laura and Doris
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0035
were chatting as
the McKeon-Williams family
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0036
arrived amusing both Doris
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0037
and Laura
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0038
until the Wagner children
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0039
marched in which seemed to amuse both Tony
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0040
and Ross
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0041
Rich Gittleman brought the fish
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0042
and I was able to operate it
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0043
though it will be more handy for visiting faculty. Leong and family
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0044
arrived as did Martha
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0045
after which I caught pictures of Emily Shea
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0046
Stephanie Klockenbrink
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0047
and Will Dobbs-Allsop
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0048
but not before I was presented with 3 elegant ties
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0049
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0050
by the people who take the train to New York.
This amused Jan Kubik
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0051
as he enjoyed his sandwich
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0052
and Jan-girl spoke to Seva
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0053
After John Shea's lesson, I tied my ties
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0054
and then captured the Hutner contingent
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0055
../../../Sabbat/2003/05.18.03Celebration//IMG_0056
before the party was over and it was back to reality....
