A bowl of shaved ice would be real nice right about now. With some grass jelly, lots of syrup and condensed milk. Maybe some Jacob's tears and sweet mung beans, too. Young Bo' made us all sit in the sun during our Friday lunch and now I'm really red and hot. But also full and content. And ready to fall asleep in front of my monitor.
Last night, I met my second cousin's yesterday (and their parents- my first cousins once removed, aka my dad's cousin. Thank you wikipedia family tree). Before they left, we took many obligatory family pictures together in our living room. We have quite a collection of these group pictures with distant relatives. Apparently, my father has lots of cousins- cousins I never know he has until they happen to be in the Boston area. I don't know what purpose the pictures serve, especially since we usually only see these people once and never show those pictures to anyone or look at them ourselves. But if you ever want to know what my second cousins looks like, I can show you.
