Eye Sleuth
“Lars invited me to the consulate’s annual celebration but was totally understanding when I begged off the day’s activities.
“I need to catch up, go in to the office for a bit,” I explained.
“Then come over for an evening meal?” he said. “Lanny’s been asking for you.”
“I’ll be there,” I promised.
At breakfast––ah, the pleasure of sipping a cup of miso as I planned the day––I thought over the puzzling questions I’d had the night before and discarded them. Why anticipate trouble? I... indulged in mochi to follow the miso, heating an entire package in the toaster oven. I ate half and wrapped the rest for a snack. The cats graciously accepted the treats I put out and showed I was forgiven by purring and rubbing against my legs. Larissa was home when I called and happy to hear I had the teapot she’d wanted instead of cash for looking after the cats.
“I’ll bring you the teapot on my way to the office.”MoreLess
