So how was your weekend? I hope you did something fun and relaxing for the holiday...I had a great weekend, great food, great company and great fun! We learned how to play Spades this weekend! What a game, I feel like I've been living in a closet! Do you know how to play Spades? Great, great, great fun...I can't wait to do it again! And yesterday I taught a really good friend of mine how to cook clams. She doesn't really cook well yet because she doesn't know how...but we're working on it! I also found out she is an avid Sopranos fan who doesn't have HBO! I can't have any friend of mine, for that matter, out in the cold...so I'm going to start inviting her over to watch with us on Sunday nights or as we call it in my house, Italian night!
