The party went really well. The food turned out yummy, and the guests seemed to have fun. We didn’t even bicker during the cleaning and preparation process.
Here’s Darwin finishing up the fried rice:

I admit it - I’m pretty proud of myself, of us. It was hard work, but the whole time I just reminded […]
