Facebook Friends

Dear Family Facebook Friends:

I think this site is an easier method of connecting with you.

Trying to deliver messages through my parents or other family works at times, but then you have to ask if they ever said anything. Then there is the delay of knowing just what happened to the person in question. Time flies, as you know. :)

I was telling Melody the other day that I had a photo of her at ten, and the next time I am in touch with her, she is a grown up lady. Anyway, I love her photos, no matter what age she is. :)

I had a bit of conflict last time Daisy and I tried to meet at my parent's. It was mainly that my parents hadn't been expecting me. Normally, we can drop by unexpectedly, but these days, they are so super - busy with church and guests, that I think my showing up may interfere a bit with scheduling.

I usually talk to them a whole lot because of other schedules, too. It all has to do with appointments, going and coming back, and there is always a new one. So, an extra visit to their house seems like just one more appointment to handle. It must be a lot for them. So, I want to give them a break from that.

I especially am interested in keeping in touch with Alix now, because she misses all of you right now so much. I hope that she will have more opportunities some day to visit and have fun with everyone.

Today, I find myself undecided on breakfast. I may opt for a Kerala breakfast after all. Mummy gave me Indian coffee to brew. ( ;) ) It's called "Bru." Nice new brand for me, here, anyway. The cousins and uncles who can outfit me with other brands are all in India now. That is maddening, because I had just found the "kadas," and was planning to shop there. Anyway, we will have more people who will someday own one as a hobby, besides all the other work that all of us are doing everywhere. :)

Sigh! Is there a stress center for all of us out there?!

lol...

Bye for now!

P.S. Someone, anyone, please send my mom and dad some halvah and other goodies like a college survival pack or something! I miss Kerala food! :) The only thing I can find around here is "athaca" and even then, it is not good like any of our parent's creations at all. Aunty from Pune sent me a book of cooking, but I haven't tried anything from there yet! I'll let you know of my successes and failures with cooking soon enough!
