A time for work, a time for play

Friday night was good relief for the overworked Texties - ML graciously offered up her house for an office BBQ.

Highlights: lamb, chicken, potato salad, brownies and Sashi's sinfully rich cheesecake.

The only real casualty of the evening was the foiled trifle due to custard that refused to behave.

Apart from that, it was a night of good food, good company and late night conversations. It's a lull in the storm right now and a good time to rest, regroup and prepare for the next onslaught.

And there was plenty of occasion to laugh without needing alcohol. Sign of a good time indeed.
