Kathryn is pretty great because she invites us all to her house and throws dinner parties and makes an astounding amount of food (we are talking five kinds of dessert, people. Including one with Heath Bar bits). In all a lovely weekend complete with a mini road trip and pit stop in Fairfield, gorgeous weather, lots of deck-sitting and drink-sipping, delicious Giada food, blueberry pancakes, new sunglasses, and being treated to the beauty that is the downtown Hartford train station.
