House Warming

Mrs. Myrtle Standich attended the housewarming party of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Yamin. Also in attendance were Mrs. Ida Willaby, Ms. Allison Tuttle, Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Soloman. The home was of ranch style and is situated on Rodeo Drive. The front door was a most impressive solid mahogany. Mr. Henry Yamin reportedly purchased this from a flea market and referred to it as "a one in a million find". All in attendance agreed with him.

The interior was painted a delicate yellow which Mrs. Henry Yamin referred to as "dandelion". Later in the evening she would admit to the uncertainty of the actual name of the hue. The color scheme, in addition to "dandelion", also worked in powder blue. These colors were spread evenly and most pleasantly throughout the three bedrooms and two bathrooms. It was the bathroom annexed from the master bedroom that Mr. Henry Yamin referred to as "the throne" to the dismay of Mrs. Henry Yamin.

The end of the tour brought all in attendance most conveniently to the kitchen where Mrs. Henry Yamin had prepared a most appetizing display of h'ors d'oeurves. Of peculiar note were the mini hot dogs wrapped in mini croissants. Politely, all in company nibbled one while Mrs. Henry was present. But once she momentarily exited, it was discovered that Mrs. Ida Willaby, Ms. Allison Tuttle, and Mrs. Bernard Soloman uniformly agreed that mini hot dogs in mini croissants bordered on inappropriate for a house warming affair. Mr. Bernard Soloman was not present at the time. He was receiving a tour of the garage from Mr. Henry Yamin.

Mrs. Ida Willaby that she seemed to remember her grandchildren enjoying and theorized that there must be a new movement in the youth of today for this type of culinary behavior. Ms. Allison Tuttle spoke for all present when she said that if that was the case she is glad taste buds mature. Mrs. Bernard Soloman added that putting meat in a buttery pastry was particularly disturbing when ketchup and mustard were customarily used to flavor said meat. Mrs. Myrtle Standich and Mrs. Ida Willaby nodded in agreement. This culinary faux pax notwithstanding, all present did find the party and therby the new home of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Yamin suitable.
