Day 38: All Girls Plus One

My friend Emily hosted a Shabbat lunch today. There were about 8 - 10 of us there, and it was a classic All Girls Meal Plus One - as in, only one guy at the meal. As said guy is known to remark, when one guy is eating alone with many girls, one of two things will happen. Either, the girls focus all their attention on the one guy and ask him lots of questions, or, the girls forget that there is a guy in the room and speak freely. Either way, the guy learns a lot. I would say that his assessment was correct in this case. I ate delicious chicken cutlets with BBQ sauce and onions, asparagus salad, rice with craisins and mushrooms (I made that), chulent, and some other good stuff. For dessert I had fruit and an incredible chocolate streudel cake, made by another friend. It was rich and chocolately and deliciously amazing. My props to our own resident Ace of Cakes.
