puff peas

I dreamt that I was working in a clinic. I think I was a nurse, but not quite sure. I think we were wrapping up our day, but still had some duties. I was near beds with privacy curtains between. It must have been my station, because I felt like I had to stay there. I think there was to be a celebration that night as people were talking about what they would make and bring. I was just waiting. I looked up at the curtain hooks, I saw that someone had created a white plastic triangle that hooked at the top that looked like a nurses cap, and it was followed by a white plastic circle that was supposed to be a head, and some other shapes that made the rest of the body. It was cute and a nice light hearted thing to see in a clinic. I kept trying to point it out to my mother, but she was never quite paying attention.

The shift was done now and it was time to go to the event. I walked into the place of the party and it was beautiful. It was like a very large garden room, windows everywhere, dark wood, little tables, flowers... As my mother, brother, JH, PC and I walked through the tables, I saw many fancy desserts. I realized each individual party created their own items for that evening. It was a neat idea and it was fun to see the variety. My mother had provided ours and her first dessert was very inventive. I was surprised. It was spicy and sweet with herbs. It was very good. My brother and I got up to look into the next room. There was an upper echelon group in there. They seemed annoyed that anyone was walking in their area, although it was open for everyone.

I returned to our table. JH had put his coats, a scarf and his pile of things on the chair next to him. I moved everything over to his chair... he always brought too many things.

The next dessert was a puff pastry that was cut out in a round like a small pizza. The edges had another layer and other bits of puff pastry were twisted to crisscross the top. The topping was made of peas.. well, whole peas and lightly sweetened with a filling of ricotta. I was happy about this one as I don't like overly sweet desserts and it sounded very pleasant.

My brother returned and he was upset. He was told to leave their circle from the other room. I was surprised he was upset as he usually doesn't care what others think.
