lunch with Martha, Jenna, and Marina

Good heavens but some of my family inherited some smart and beauty genes from somewhere. We met my sister Martha and her two daughters for lunch on Main Street in Annapolis, at one of the now several sushi restaurants (the presence of which of course makes all of us comment about how exciting it was when the blasted crepes restaurant opened up back we were in high school, bringing some whiff of someplace else to town). The three of them are standing in front of the restaurant waiting for us, and our eyes swoon. Jenna is elegant and composed. Marina has on a bright yellow and green cropped wig. Their faces glitter and in the restaurant we get shown to the back corner table where we can all huddle and start laughing and don't stop. Edamame, a tray of fish, some rolls, seaweed salad, fruit, a few beers -- anything to make the afternoon last forever.
