Friday's here, so time again for a favorite meme The Weekend Roundup hosted by Tom. Today's letter, the 22nd, has its charms, and given my last name, I'll start there...
Villers is our name so a family portrait of the extended Villers family is in order :) The time is July 1969, the place Brigantine, NJ. I'm on the upper left in gold. Note the late 1960s dress and hair styles!
More Villers, The time is in the summer of 1945 after V-J Day, the place along the Pennsylvania Turnpike to or from Atlantic City. Grandma Agnes (O'Hanon) Villers and my Aunt Terry. Note the license tag - he had these personalized 'RV' Ohio plates from the mid-1930s...
This is a Vietnam Veteran's memorial at the beach in West Haven, CT
Voluminous. Our son is a software developer in Manhattan working from his Brooklyn apartment. His boss treated him to lunch from a take out. I'll let Cam describe it:
"When the boss says you can order lunch, why not go all out? I finally tried a Pakistani place I've been meaning to check out.
Clockwise from top left: chicken biryani (slow cooked rice) and chicken kabobs, samosa chaat (chaat is fried potato pieces, fried bread pieces, onions, and chickpeas, in a yogurt sauce; all that over two potato samosas), paratha (flatbread).
The spice level is fine but to be honest I think the number of spices is a lot more interesting than the heat. I haven't had this many flavors at one time in two months."
