Went over to my brother’s house with my mom to have dinner with Ozzie, Stephen, Kimi and the three, three and a half week-old kittens. My mom had made some hús leves (meat soup, minus the meat).

Quick Zoo Trip
Since my mom and I, already being at Balboa Park, were right next door to the Zoo, I took her in to see the new Panda Trek entrance to the Giant Panda exhibit. After picking up an espresso for her and hot chocolate for me, we walked down through the Owens Aviary on our way …

Dining at Oz’s
The whole local Csanadi clan got together for dinner at Ozzie’s house tonight. Sort of a much belated birthday gathering for Stephen. Food was great and we got to see the almost three week old kittens again. They are getting awfully loud when hungry or alone. Just like me except I’m not black.

Kittens: Day One
Kitten-sat three abandoned kitties that my brother found in his backyard. Fed them each twice and otherwise they just slept until Ozzie and my niece Kimi came to pick them up for the night. Tomorrow will be the same with the possibility of one extra feeding.

Starbucks With Mami
Took my mom for some coffee and lemon loaf at a nearby Starbucks. Also wanted to pick up the first free, weekly iPhone App that they were giving away. I heard it was the “Shazam” app for figuring out what song you might be hearing somewhere. Good news is they still had cards for the app. Bad …

Birthday Party For My Mother’s Son’s Sister’s Husband’s Daughter
Family got together to belatedly celebrate Aidan’s birthday at Ozzie’s house. Jeri and Stephen were once again in charge of the food and settings. After dinner and cake we played a few hands of “Apples to Apples.” Just as the first time I played, I sucked. But it was fun.

Goodbye Breakfast With Barbara
Had a Denny’s-provided all-American breakfast with Barbara and my mom before Barbara departed for her return trip to Los Angeles and its +100º valley temperature. Almost feel guilty for us only reaching 80º here in coastal San Diego.

In Zoro Garden
Enjoyed walking around with my mom inside Zoro Garden in Balboa Park. The sunken garden has been there since the 1935 California-Pacific International Exposition but was rededicated in 2007 as a Butterfly Garden. ( f l o r a p i c s )

Jeri’s Surprise
Spent a little over an hour with my sister Beata setting up decorations for a surprise birthday dinner for Jeri after she and my nephew Stephen returned from their trip to Catalina Island.

Much merriment was had today starting with an excellent breakfast at the resort, followed by tennis playing, kite flying, bocce balling and walks along the beach. There was some Starbucks and donuts thrown in there somewhere for good measure. ( p i c s )
