As my dear friend, Per, would say, "Hubba hubba." I am one happy camper. Adrian arrived on Thursday. We went to a Nationals' ball game on Friday and today he barbequed a wonderful dinner. Chicken, fennel, peppers and pineapple. Fabulous. All of it, fabulous. Tomorrow we leave for the Outer Banks of North Carolina. It is all good.
New Tricks is the book that I read through sleep and a couple of days. It was pretty cute, good mystery and enjoyable enough to go back several times to catch up on things that I missed when I drifted off during the night. 
Drifting off was never an issue with The Elegance of the Hedgehog. The question was whether the girl would kill herself, would the concierge successfully hide from all her "charges?" There is a lot of philosophising in this book. You can skip that. Lovely plot. Good characters. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and never fell asleep once.
