You know you threw a good luncheon at the office when all of the bosses came to you to say it was great. I especially liked that the Chief, who worked at HQ for a while, came to tell me that our party was far better than anything he went to at HQ.

And The Director made an appearance. It was like old times, almost.

Mom, your ham rolls are a huge hit and you may get a couple cookbook sales as a result.

Beau and Jesse came for the festivities and Jesse charmed just about everyone. He was actually very well behaved and ate a pretty good lunch followed up by a whole piece of pumpkin pie that was fed to him by KN. And then she fed him about 1/3 of a chocolate cupcake, too. Poor Beau has probably had a very active afternoon. Or Jesse crashed and took a really good nap. Or both.

All I know is that I’m weary. I was up at 5am to start the actual cooking part of the food prep. I’m ready to go home and crash.

One thing that needs doing tonight - our White Elephant gifts need to be wrapped for tomorrow night’s party.
