the best part

Sometimes I think the best part of a party (or at least one of the best parts) is the day after, when the house is clean, the dishes are done, the memories are good and fresh flowers are around (a novelty for us). Then again, if you had too much to drink the night before- the day after is definitely not the best part. Fortunately for me, I'm nursing Shirley Temples these days.

Hmm, my apartment is usually NOT so clean after a party... maybe I should be rethinking my guest list!

Usually every dish is dirty, there's candle wax in the bathroom, all the handtowels are soaking, there's bound to be a stain somewhere, and crumbs ground into the carpet.

I agree! and most especially when you live as an expat in China and have ayi to clean it all for you! Alas, now that we're back home, I'm on my own from now on... sigh.

i totally agree! i just had this feeling not too long ago and it also makes the house feel so empty after everyone has left!
