Jen said she was coming to town briefly.

Krys said we had to get together! She’d host!

A bunch of us came. I brought a box of slab apricots from Andy’s Orchard, the healthiest tasty (and fastest!) thing I could think of on the spur of the moment.

So many memories, so much catching up, so good to spend time with friends, especially the one we never get to see.

As I was leaving and we hugged I asked Jen, So: when are you coming again?

She looked like, oh if only, and I grinned, Trick question, right?

She laughed and we got one last hug and I wonder when the next time will ever if it will ever be. But it had better. Because I said so. So there.

(p.s. From Food.com: a recipe that they had way too much fun with. And the comments!)
