Ahhhhhh...........................

Missions accomplished. Open House went off without a hitch, my mother-henning about whether or not we were putting out enough food were totally unecessary; H's judgement was right on, though due to my concerns she did get about - 0h - maybe a gross more paper plates than we really needed.

And people brought many bottles of wine and bubbly, Antonio and Graca brought Casasa and a Caiparinha "kit", but John went to the QFC and got a dozen limes so we didn't need the mixer. There were maybe 55 to 60 total visitors throughout the afternoon, at times it was just about standing room only in the living/dining room, and the house really performed beautifully.

Heather played Vanna White a half dozen times demonstrating the Nanawall, and we stopwatched the magnetic induction stove a number of times during various demos - steam appears at about 27 seconds and water starts to boil at about 50 to 60 seconds.

Thanks to all of you who came and made it a most memorable event - and to thouse who brought a little something, and a special thanks to Jon and Midori for staying after to help us clean up- and we went to Tempero afterwards for more Antonio and Graca fun.

Happy Holidays!
