Super-yum! Monica’s graduation party—8 June 2013 One of the bonuses of having great Greek friends (besides their charm and affection, of course) is wonderful food. For this occasion, the Spanakopita was made by Evonne’s cousin Georgia. Over the years, I’ve been happily fed many tasty treats by several members of the family (including EK, herself).

Palatine High School Bands concert—8 May 2013</b>
Tonight marks the first concert of the new school year. It’s also the first with a new director, and the first of Number Two Son’s senior year. I’m ready to be entertained. [This shot is from last school year’s <i>last</i> concert.]](https://photos.smugmug.com/Photo-of-the-Week/2013-Photos-of-the-Week/i-Ps2XFzL/1/8e62cf8b/Ti/PHS%20Bands%20Firsts%20and%20Lasts_0084c-Ti.jpg)

Charlie and his blanket—29 November 2013</b>
After Granny died, I had a sudden urge to crochet (she knitted and crocheted). I taught myself mostly with YouTube videos, and started on my first project. Hannah’s kitten was the perfect recipient—he’s adorable, and he doesn’t complain! Now, I’m hooked on crochet.

Palatine High School Cross Country v. Prospect—3 September 2013</b>
The Varsity Boys team won its opening meet (all the PHS teams did), in what we expect will prove to be a wonderful final season for Number Two Son, Adam. Argeni (followed by Emil) is one of this year’s captains (along with Adam, Dean, Emil, Eddie, and Graham). This was our favorite shot from the afternoon.
