Another family dinner

Last night at we were our son's house for dinner, and his fiancée made several excellent dishes, of which the okra and olive dish was the one I liked best.  I love okra anyway, in any form — curries, gumbo soup, or just plain deep fried.  She also made a sole with white sauce, a dish with tofu and vegetables, and salad.  Dessert was a strawberry cheese pie that rounded out the meal perfectly.

Our older granddaughter is getting ready to apply for college, and had been working hard on her college admission essay, which she asked me to look at.  She did very well in several college preparatory exams, and we are sure she will continue to do well in whichever college she eventually attends.  In a couple of years her younger sister will also be ready to pursue higher studies.  They are wonderful young women, and we are very proud of them.
