Friends: know where you stand...

Here's a great way to find out where you rank on your friends' social scale.

We were invited to lunch at Mandi and David Lowenstein's today (a fabulous meal-try to score an invitation, if you can).

I called up on Thursday to discuss what we could bring. Their two kids (7 and 4) answered the phone.

"Who is it?" they asked.
"It's one of your parents' top 3 favorite friends," I replied.
"Mark?"
"Uh no...."
"Aton?"
"Uh, no....you know what, let's stop now."

Love the honesty of kids... :-)
And, don't worry, the two kids were very good sports. I don't think they were scarred for life.
