kansis city, love.
so many people i love live in kansis city && i rarely get to see them.
but during this valentine's day weekend, i got to see all of them :)
as i stepped off the plane, we found out my grandmother was admitted to the hospital.
i got to hold her hand and hug her, something that was so special to me and
something i so little get to do.
my grandparents know what is important if you need to stay in the hospital, a night of cake and coffee (of course, provided by my grandfather)- i guess that's where i get my priorities.
...
my sister, leela and her husband russell, showed me a wonderful time in weston, ks.
what i like to call the trifecta of a town.
a brewery, winery && distillery (and the most adorable candle shop with flavors like pb&j, cigar shop, man musk, brown sugar, chai latte- i have had hours of enjoyment since my purchases)
needless to say, we had a great time.
...
my weekend ended while dancing with my dear aunt at a jazz restaurant and dining on new orleans cuisine (in kc, right?!) not your typical fare, however, my family is anything but typical.
but i love them with all my heart.
thank you L and R for your kind hospitality.
love,
cal
