Who is a Lablaban?

A lablaban is someone who talks and talks. Like my grandaughter Roxanne is a lablaban. Since she was little she was a lablaban. Talking and talking and talking. She swallowed a radio. But I love her.

We visited Stacy's friends in New York


One night when I was in New York, the second night I came to Stacy he was invited to one of his friends, Jeet and Amarna, they are Indian. They live out of town a little bit, They were so hospitable. They served us so much food, it was very good, they made 5 or 6 kinds of food and the rice. And we brought them some wine, and we were all drinking it.

For desert, they served blueberries and strawberries and ice cream she served. And we were drinking wine all the time.

I asked her, "do you wear saris in the US?" She said she has a lot of them but she never wears them. She brought me a few she was showing me, so beautiful such nice fabrics. She put one on over the shoulder like the Indian ladies wear it. So beautiful. She showed me one that she bought for her daughter, so beautiful, she says she doesn't want it. And she said, "oh, that's your size," and she gave me one. And everyone said this is so beautiful and she said, "take it, take it, and i said no, it's too much." And she insisted, I told her, "thank you, thank you," and i kissed her. And then we had tea with cinnamon.
