โ€œThere were none of the usual fresh-cut flowers or the smell of ๐Ÿ‘es and melons from the country estate that usually filled the air, no music on the radio, not even the dogsโ€™ noisy welcome. โ€

โ€œQuite often, she would turn up with strange dishes like cold zucchini soup or chicken with cinnamon and ๐Ÿ‘es.โ€

Marrying the Ketsups

Monday June 13, 6 :30

โ€œ After a flight of fruit-inspired beerโ€”watermelon, ๐Ÿ‘ , and raspberryโ€”Gretchen leaned her head back on the booth. โ€œCan I ask you something?โ€ she said.โ€

Itโ€™s a BINGO!
Had to marry them today.
Time to protest.
Sadly the Beavers lost.

โ€œThe Iris Garden, up by the Piazzale Michelangelo, had not long opened for the season, and Cress and Paola were first through the gates that day. A rare cream and ๐Ÿ‘ variety had caught Paolaโ€™s eye and sheโ€™d knelt down to view it better. .

Peach sorbet

โ€œThere were watercress sandwiches, champagne, lemonade, ๐Ÿ‘-colored napkins to match the sorbet that came with the cake, peacocks on the lawn.โ€

โ€œQuintana had come by to get my motherโ€™s ruby crystal glasses. โ€

โ€œI found him outside in the dark, tearing unripe ๐Ÿ‘ es from a tree and hurling them at the peacocks, a characteristically straightforward if counterproductive approach to resolving an annoyance. โ€

You know there is a cult following when stickers are involved

Honey cakes

โ€œSo after this whole journey,โ€ she says, โ€œAethon answers the riddle, gets through the gates, drinks from the rivers of wine and cream, eats apples and ๐Ÿ‘es, even honeycakes, whatever those are, and the weather is always great, and no one is mean to him, and heโ€™s still unhappy?โ€

Pooka shells, the truck, groundhogโ€ฆ

And Teevas

โ€œShe held a small receptacle in her hand brimming with a ๐Ÿ‘-colored substance. โ€œYou have to put this under your eyes,โ€ she said. โ€œWeโ€™ve all been having sleepless nights, but you, honey, need to show off those beautiful peepers.โ€
