• Six-year-olds are not really ready to do a Purim spiel, even if it involves a battle with a giant snake.
• Citizen’s Cider with infused ginger is very good and was a big hit. Ironbound Hard Cider is middling and not worth getting again.
• When small children other than my son are involved, assume that I’ll need more hard cheese than otherwise. I’d forgotten how much cheddar children without dairy allergies will happily gobble.
• ARR is unquestionably my son: When we got late into the party, he asked if it was time for everyone to leave yet. I gave him a glass of juice. He perked up and was good for another hour.
• ARR is unquestionably Jethrien’s son: The last twenty minutes or so of the party involved him reading quietly on his bed while one of his friends played with action figures nearby. (Also, he took down an entire Magic Tree House book in an hour on Sunday morning when he didn’t want to help me do chores.)
