Tuesday, Tony was on duty at the hospital all night so we had to say goodbye to each other early in the day....
BUT! I tried my best to be a good future Mother-in-Law by making him an obento for his evening meal in the hospital.
A lot of left-overs there in his obento but I was working in an unfamiliar kitchen (Leiya needs new cookingware!!!) and without my usual condiments. ("What! You don't have sesame oil?!"
We had a good lunch before taking a tour of the Detroit Medical Center.
A big hospital complex.
The gardens of the hospital are beautiful enough that this could even be a place to have a wedding!
Inside was like a maze...
Leiya and I spent the rest of the day discussing wedding ideas and then we had dinner with Tony's family (without Tony!) We also did a bit more dress shopping for me and I found a possible dress though it is rather an autumn color...
The next morning Leiya dropped me off at the airport before she headed for work and I spent a few quiet hours reflecting on my visit and exploring the airport...
Um... Is that a Pandora shop right there in the airport? And is that a Michigan Pandora bead? I guess I've got to have it as a reminder of my trip and as I have a California bead representing where Takumi lives I surely need a bead representing where Leiya lives too!
They just announced David's Bridal is filing for a restructuring bankruptcy. They say they will complete all orders and keep stores open but keep an eye on it carefully. https://www.news5cleveland.com/news/national/david-s-bridal-planning-to-file-for-bankruptcy Ana usa
ReplyDeleteHe's a blessed guy to be marrying into your family and having a mother-in-law like you. That bento box looks delicious. So nice that you found that Michigan charm.
