[ there's a beat.

and then he smiles - ] I have absolutely heard of 'California'.


[ no

no he has not. judging by that grin, he definitely has not. ] I thought I was a fairly worldly person, until I showed up here!

So do a lot of food bloggers on the internet.

[Said like he would know what that is.]

If it makes you feel any better, I still don't know where Great Liang is.

[ gu yun laughs, good natured, completely at ease with it. ]

Perhaps we can both just go on and pretend we knew what the other was talking about, and never talk about it again?

[ lol ]

[Without missing a beat:]

Works for me!

[liuli]

Excellent. [ he grins right back!!! if he knew what a thumbs up was he'd probably do one. ]

Would you mind terribly giving a visitor to your home a tour?

[toesies]

Not at all! I would offer you a cup of coffee first, but I don't think any of the food in my pantry is real right now.

[ he touches his hand to his heart! touched! and being playful. ]

I'm charmed by your hospitality, nevertheless. [ teehee. gu yun gestures forward! let's go check out the house. ] Do you live with your family, Sheila? It's a nice place.

What gave it away? The family portraits?

[Lightly joking, but there is absolutely a wall full of them as they walk further into the house. All of them feature Sheila, a young redhaired girl, and a significantly taller older man — or some combination of them.]

It's just my daughter, husband and I. Though, recently, one of my co-workers started living in our basement. And let me tell you, that has been interesting.

[Welcome to the kitchen and living room! It's an open floor concept, with a nice view of the living room from the kitchen. Very nice for entertaining guests.]
