Our friends, Jessica and Karim are in town. Jessica and I were Graduate Instructors for the same women’s health class and in the same MSW/MPH dual degree program at Michigan; Karim, a French National, has a PhD in Mechanical Engineering from Michigan. They currently live in San Diego: Jessica works for a child health and safety organization and Karim does research in underwater accoustics.

So — we’ve had a great time! They arrived Friday afternoon and we enjoyed a relaxing evening with a walk around the neighborhood and home-cooked dinner: my family Ziti, collard greens with garlic (recipe compliments of Karim and Jessica), and green salad. While we put dinner together, I made triple c’s (chocolate chip cookies — so much easier with my beloved mixer), which we enjoyed with strawberries for dessert.
