My sister and her family are at my mom's for a while, plus my mom got a new baby (a female chocolate lab) that's up from 3 am to 5 am every morning. So, I booked a room between her house and my oldest nephew's (which just happens to be right around the corner from an Irish pub where I used to play darts).
I have a feeling a few family members will be using my room as an escape pad for the next couple of days, which is fine by me.
Combined birthday dinner is at a great Cuban place on Sunday night. It's in old Orange Circle and they make a dish called Picadillo Criollo (it's seasoned ground beef and pork cooked together in a Cuban sofrito sauce with raisins and olives) and a strong Cuba Libre (just rum, coke and lime). I'm gonna try to do a half a piece of cake each and double up on the drinks. I haven't been there in over two years -- mouth is already watering.
