Addendum:
I cooked my second batch much larger in order to give my buddy, Joe a care package; a little home cooked dinner for him and his siblings. I thought of this while coming home from his mother's funeral- I can remember others doing the same for us when my mom passed away. Decided to wait until now because it's always more difficult after the out of town relatives leave and the house gets quiet. I don't know how Frank, Julie and Joe are managing and this is a perfect excuse to take {Ja} up to visit my hometown.
The two of us will be traveling up to New Providence, dropping by Joe's for a visit and then stopping to see {Ma} and probably {Ba} Saturday afternoon. {Je} will be volunteering for the Special Olympics at College of NJ all day anyway so we'll rendezvous later in the afternoon / evening.
