BBQ- June 6th

Taking a break from writing my final paper for my Modern Chinese History class, it's on the the motivations of various groups during the intellectual movement known as the May Fourth Movement in 1919... don't worry mom, I'm almost done.

It is almost that time, most of my friends have already finished their finals and are back home and I'm about 5,500 words, two tests and eighteen days from heading back to the good ol' US-of-A. I've been informed by my mother that on June sixth (a Saturday) that there will be a BBQ happening at the Leiser household, and I would love to see all of you who can make there to share even more stories, pictures and good food with all of you. I am also planning on giving a presentation at church for those locally who may have a conflict, as for those a little further away (Grammy, ala), we'll figure something out.

Sorry I don't have anything ground breaking to share with you, been spending a lot of time staring at a book or a computer (apparently I have to do real school work). The weather has been a little nicer (aka, cooler) the last two days, and I had chicken tongue for dinner the other night.

Mark your calenders.

  1. Looking forward to having you home and hearing all about your adventures. I'll check with Jay to see if Hannaford's can special order us some chicken tongues...Mom

  2. Seriously.... chicken tongues???? Wouldn't you have to eat like a million of them to fill you up? Too yucky to imagine.

    BBQ sounds like fun. I told mom she should fly up for that weekend.

    Hope your mom is planning on filling up the pantry before you get home. Sounds like you are going to need a few days to "catch up".

  3. Ok, George can't quit shaking his head over the chicken tongues. How big are they, do they fry them, etc. Any details you can provide should help him to concentrate on other stuff (lol).

    Did the frog "taste like chicken"?

  4. OK, we really are all pretty much the same: in this hemisphere it is cod tongues! Meanwhile, we had our first Rosalie's of the season in honor of Dev's birthday. I made sure to really enjoy it since I had knowledge of your current deprivation (think about the pizza-less Andews in China...). It will be great to see you. Happy belated birthday!

    Love,
    Jill
