Colette's birthday
Yesterday 18 of us celebrated Colette's 60th at a nearby restaurant she'd chosen with Michel. Only about 4 h 15 m at the table, but the children had taken activities with them, and the folks at the restaurant put us in a special room where the noise wouldn't bother the other patrons. A great time was had by all, as they say.
The temperature was just right for a snowball fight afterwards, and there was plenty of clean snow next to the road, so nearly everyone climbed back into the cars with wet hair and cold hands.

Snowball fight, what a great way to "wake up" after a heavy meal so you can drive straight.

You hope people metabolize faster than they drink at these sorts of things, and that the long sit at the table will give their livers time to do the work. I do better surrounded by family than seated across from my former boss.
Which is more dangerous, the stretch of road near a nightclub at 4 am, or the stretch of road near a restaurant at 4 pm?
