Ingrid is one of my closest friends in London. Her friendship snuck up on me. It was one of my favorite surprises of the past two years. She is so generous and kind.
This year, 3 people are leaving the maths department at Orleans Park. Kevin and myself, after just a few years. And Clive is leaving after… 37 years!! Can you imagine? He worked at the school for 37 years… and that does not include the time he went to school there as a student! Yes, you heard that right.
As an end of the year party, Ingrid opened up her home and we all came over for a BBQ. It was pot luck. We brought a typical fruit salad (all melons this time ~ from the little vegetable stand across the way. Very delicious… and very hard to mess up!). Kevin was probably the culinary winner of the evening with some amazing pink bubbly and a salad to die for!

It was a really wonderful way to wrap up the year and we all felt like a little family. (At least for a few hours! He, he)
