Went to lunch with my conservative sister in law

I took her to this wonderful Mediterranean place I mean it has truly the most awesome food. We chatted a bit and talked about Syrian refugees. I told her, "ya know, god bless John McCain for what he said about these people and his religious beliefs, while I am on the other side supporting Bernie, it's good to see someone from her side speak out in favor of these folks"

I know she may never vote for Bernie, but I had to do it, I had to show her how we can all enhance the quality of our lives simply by embracing and appreciating our differences in food and culture. Oh and this place was HOPPING busy. The food was amazeballs too.
