Maia is in the kitchen preparing spinach frittatas for breakfast, wondering if she should add them to the menu at the stand today, when Tami walks in with a big smile and a little extra bounce in her step. Tambara: Guess what, Mom! Tami doesn’t wait for Maia to guess before blurting out her news….

Luca: I didn’t exactly have my share. And I’m married now. That was ages ago. How am I supposed to know where to meet women? He shoots me a warning look. Luca: Don’t even think about calling Chi Chi. She’s happily married now. I hadn’t even considered it, but now that he’s brought her up……

It’s the last day of summer vacation. The weather is finally nice enough for Tami to meet a few friends at the water park near the lake, including Enzo and his sister, Kisha. She and Enzo have been flirting on Social Bunny for days. She likes him a lot, and he has a quirky way…

The joy in Xavier’s voice is unmistakable when I call to ask if it’s okay to bring Tami to see Finesse. He’s out in the yard, grinning with all his teeth showing when we arrive in Chestnut Ridge about an hour later. As soon as we arrive, Tami makes a beeline for her horse. I…
