Church Weekend

Thursday, June 19, 2008

No, I didn’t convert. CB and some of our good friends are Episcopalians. A few were graduating from the EFM class last Saturday. CB and I were invited to participate the ceremony at the Cathedral Center. The service was a bit odd. But I enjoyed the visit anyway. Plus, we got to go to brunch afterwards. Someone found this really nice place in Silver Lake, Cliff’s Edge. Very hard to find location. No signage other than the little valet parking sign. But the atmosphere was fantastic. Food was good, and the price was right!

Sunday we surprised our friend Connie by showing up for Los Angeles Recorder Orchestra’s performance at St. Bede’s. Connie played the Bass. I’d never seen so many different kinds of recorders. Actually, I thought there was only one size. Check out LARO’s photo page for various types of recorders. Especially the Contra and Great Basses. Very odd looking. :-)

We also went to a blessing of same-sex union two weeks ago. Wonderful friends of ours. A lovely couple. About 250 people showed up. And I think about that many went to the reception at the couple’s house afterwards. Catering was done by Paul McCullough, former contestant on season 3 of The Next Foodnetwork Star. (I told quite a few that he was on season 2. :oops: ) Everything was super delicious. Definitely check him out for catering service. Too bad I forgot my camera! :-(
