My sisters and I still laugh about the dinner (picture a dining room with white carpeting) when one daughter spilled a serving dish of beets on the floor and my dad started singing “Deep Purple” to ease the tension. (Lyrics: When the deep purple falls, Over sleepy garden walls, And the stars begin to twinkle in the night…)
My favorite dinner was on my birthday when Mother made my favorite tetrazzini as the entree and Concord grape pie for dessert. Not everyone else’s favorites!
A white carpet has a magnetic attraction to things like beets, red wine and chocolate ice cream! I love the sound of your birthday dinner. When Concord grape season returns, I must make that pie. Sounds delicious.
