Snatching up the good ones

My cousin B. is getting married next summer to her long-time beau, who was of course in Vermont for the service, because he knew and loved Mimi too. And what a nice man: whip-smart and funny.

One night at dinner, I was sitting next to him, and when my wine glass was empty, I put it on top of my head. I hadn't even had time to balance it properly before he passed me the bottle.

We'll take him!
