I had the pleasure of sharing dinner last night with some new friends and their 9 yo daughter

She was delightful. Started talking to me by asking me what kind of pie I liked. That's the first time I recall a person of her age inquiring about me (or anyone else) as a conversation starter.

Anyway, at one point in the evening I asked her who she thought should win the Presidency this year.

She said, "A woman!".

I just wanted to share that.

to Coral, my new BFF.
