Today was the 4th game of the Winter session for Richard's roller hockey team, the Gremlins. This is a new team for him because his previous team, the Rangers, disbanded after several players outgrew the league and not enough players were left.
So far, the Gremlins have a perfect record: winless. However, Richard had a banner game today scoring three (3) goals (that's called a hat trick in hockey)! Today's game was the first one that they did not lose 11-1; it was the first game that went the entire game and was not truncated by the "mercy rule." His mom and I are really proud of Richard's persistence, dedication, and his growing skill.
After the game, we had lunch at our local Boston Market restaurant. It was a good choice because earlier in the week Richard visited his orthodontist for his monthly tuneup and consequently had a bit of difficulty chewing (pun intended). So he was looking for soft, easy to eat food: meatloaf, mac & cheese, and creamed spinach. He also sampled some of my chicken salad and a bit of my sweet potatoes.
