bringing new friends home

We brought some new friends, Allison and Paige, to Hurley's with us tonight. I was expecting it to be just me that went, but it ended up being more than half the group, plus Simon and the new girls. It was a great time, even though Jonathan didn't play fiddle - there was a girl playing fiddle and a bass player instead. The newbies all loved it there, and we'll hopefully all be there this coming Saturday. Friday night (tonight?) we have our group dinner at the French restaurant L'Entrepont or something that spells like that would sound, and we won't get out til after midnight so we're already planning on missing a night at Hurley's. We discovered cidre tonight... it was quite enjoyable. It reminded me of Thanksgiving dinner and made me miss home a little until Celtic music started up again. Good times.
