Lunch of Pasta with Frank, originally uploaded by Chris Abraham.
It is wonderful to live in the civilized world of Berlin. This is what my lunch looked like yesterday. Here I am with Frank Merfort eating a civilized lunch of pasta and glasses of water at the table in ceramic bowls.

This, right before I watched his two boys as he taught guitar all evening. I am a great uncle: I let the kids eat in the living room, allowed them to play “light saber fight” near things that can break, and allowed them to watch Star Wars II and then watch zany kids programs all night. They’re such good kids that they put themselves to bed promptly at 9.

aren’t you required to have beer with all meals in berlin?
We are, I am. I am ashamed. I am too much of an American, however, so he wanted to tone it down before I baby sat his kids. You know us American light weights.
