It's sad sometimes when it takes the death of a loved one to bring family back together, but if that's how it happens, seize the moment. Catch up, laugh, cry and then don't let the time slip by again. That is my promise to Kris and Herb. I always admired my cousin Kris and her husband Herb, and time hasn't changed that at all. We had the pleasure of their company at the SchierZenn bistro last night and it was spent trying to catch up on the last several years. It's clear that we need many more hours together to truly catch up. The weather was perfect for bistro virgins. Warm and balmy but just enough cooling down after dinner to enjoy a fire and a little more laughter. After they left I started searching my photo closet to see if I could find the Kris and Herb I remembered in my High School years, and as you can tell below, I found them!
