Dinner guest

Kate called me at work yesterday to ask me if Jeff (her boyfriend) could come over for dinner. I was tired and still had to do the weekly grocery shopping, but I answered her with a wholehearted YES.
I made spaghetti and meatballs and was worried, Kate told me that he can be finicky. He came by at 6 and brought a cheesecake for us to have for dessert. We ate dinner and kept a lively conversation going at the same time. He cleaned his plate...I needn't have worried.
We had our dessert in the family room where the conversation continued. It was a very pleasant evening.
