Clara and I went to St. Louis to visit one of my dearest college friends over her Spring Break at Covenant Seminary. We had a wonderful time - we visited the City Creperie, the zoo, the Gateway Arch, St. Louis Bread Company (the original Panera), the Hill (the Little Italy of St. Louis, where even the fire hydrants are painted with Italy's flag), Trader Joe's (why don't we have this in Houston?), and Covenant Seminary. We watched Northanger Abbey. We drank vanilla-peppermint coffee, hazelnut coffee (two kinds), and peppermint hot-chocolate. We saw spring blossoms and played Schubert's Fantasy for Piano, four hands. We watched Clara empty the spice rack on the side of the moveable island in the kitchen before every meal and tried to convince Clara to be less interested in Piper (Andrea's cat) while simultaneously attempting to persuade Piper to be more magnanamous toward her.
