That's Jon on my right and Robert on my left.<br />
We played bridge yesterday recalling many family bridge games when my father was<br />
alive.<br />
It was very close but after 16 hands, my mother was the winner.<br />
We went for dinner at Ty Breiz, <strong>with</strong> my niece, Andrea and her husband Ben. Also joining<br />
us was Sandy, Jon's wife. The onion soup was almost as good as I remembered it. I<br />
guess my taste buds are making a comeback. The mouth is still dry.<br />
Everyone commented about how great I look. Is it because I don't look like I am dying or<br />
is it because of the weight loss. I think the latter. I recall a song by Gilda Radner who later<br />
died of ovarian cancer.The song was called Goodbye Saccharin and it lamented the<br />
recall of the sweetener because it caused cancer at huge doses in rats.<br />
"Men prefer girls <strong>with</strong> cancer to girls <strong>with</strong> flabby thighs" (perhaps not a perfectly accurate<br />
quote).<br />
I am off to Philadelphia tomorrow and will post again after that visit.<br />

We are back from Philadelphia. I finally met my grandson Eli. There is a slight culture<br />
clash here. It seems Eli is a Phillies fan and I root for the Giants.<br />
