"Although if that happens, I wouldn't mind having a look at this Rejuvenator. What you've explained so far makes it sound marvelous."
She was sitting in her chair, wine glass in hand and legs crossed and grinned, "We shall see. I haven't heard from John in quite some time so it may be awhile but...." as she crinkled her nose in a smile, "...patience."
"When are we eating? Ben said his mom's going to make something really good."
She was snickering at Peter's entrance. He was so cute. She loved children and the innocence of them. She set her wine glass down, leaned forward and motioned for Peter to come over to her. When he did, she placed a hand on his shoulders, her hands giving a kind rub to the bumped shoulder as she looked him in the face.
"Have you ever had Sauerbraten?" she asked him softly. She could tell that he hadn't by his light head shake.
"Well," she said, "Sauerbraten is a dish from where I grew up on Hamburg. It's roast beef marinated in some wine with vegetables and spices."
Peter was looking at her kind of blank, "I promise that I won't make it too spicy for you but if it helps....." She brightened up her smile and again crinkled her nose, ".....Ben loves it. Does that sound OK?"
