Zheng and I spent a wonderful night last night in Nashville, Tennessee. We were hosted by graduate school friends of his. I had heard a lot about these people for a while, so it was nice to finally meet them. They have been married for several years. They now have a son who is about two years old.
When we arrived at their place, I walked into their apartment and smelled something very unusual:
I had not smelled home-cooked Chinese food for about three weeks. I felt at home immediately.
I also was surprised to learn that, in being around Chinese speakers, and now into Rosetta Stone study of Mandarin, that I was able to pick up a lot more than I thought.
(We will not discuss the fact that their two-year-old son has better Chinese than I do.)
He was a real cutie to meet.
Thank you, R, L and L for a wonderful time!
