Accommodating Your Houseguests
Last weekend my niece came over to stay with my husband and me for a few days while her parents went on a second honeymoon to Argentina. It had been awhile since I had seen her, and not only was I amazed at how she had grown physically, but she also had developed quite an independent personality. Over the last few years, it seems that she has become a diehard animal rights activist and adopted a vegan philosophy.
Every morning that she was here, I would break out my pepper mill and try my best to prepare her a nutritious breakfast that met her stringent diet. My niece showed me some recipes and tips in the kitchen that I will continue to use even after she leaves. By the end of the week, I believe I became quite adept at dressing up the tofu and vegetables that are the staple of her diet.
