Three Beautiful Things 06-22-2025: No Infusion! No Appointments!, Green Salad, Mediterranean Family Dinner

1. No infusion. No appointments. Lots of supportive messages and emojis! I welcomed a quieter day today. Steroid induced insomnia and heartburn had me awake soon after I went to bed Saturday night, but both settled down and I ended up sleeping for about seven hours, a welcome change. 

2. I put together a huge green salad, my most productive project of the day.

3. We had a delicious Mediterranean family dinner last night, featuring Paul's baked philo/asparagus appetizer, a whopping Greek salad Carol prepared, Christy's superbly baked Greek Salmon Sheet Pan Dinner with great variety of vegetables, and a ciabatta baguette from Trader Joe's that I contributed. Christy baked a wonderful Orange Cardamom Olive Oil Cake for dessert. 

We had a lot to talk about: family updates, kidney developments, a look back at military history from our high school years, and current developments in the Middle East. 

Great food. 

Calm conversation. 

A wonderful late afternoon dinner.
