Sip & Dip
I have this friend at my new pool who has an annual party at her condo.
She is incredibly generous by not only being the hostess of the luncheon but by providing the entire feast herself and more!
I looked forward to this event for many weeks especially since I’ve not been able to attend my aquasize classes due to some physical issues at the moment. So I was excited about finally being able to meet up with my new friends again. Also, Beverly, our hostess, asked me about a month ago if I would be the official photographer at the event.
That morning, I had decided that I would get into my old clothes, (no need for makeup either), to spend the day taking down ‘summer’ artwork to be replaced with fall paintings for our walls.
At about 12:30 pm I checked my phone calendar to make a hair appointment when I suddenly noticed that TODAY was the day of the 1 pm “Sip & Dip” and I was unaware of this until that moment! ARGGGGGHHHHH!
I had a grey top on with grey tights so I threw on my pink and grey dress over them, quickly applied some makeup, let my hair down, wrapped up a wee hostess gift and made it ON TIME with one minute to spare. (She lives 5 minutes away, thank God.)
Beverly (first photo above) not only provided all of the food but she also wrapped up gifts for a the games (!) and some of the prizes had the hilarious duck theme too.
I took tons of photos which I have already delivered to the gang and at the end of the luncheon one of our newest members pulled out his ukelele and serenaded us with a couple songs.
I must get better soon so I can get back in that pool!
Oh! I must admit something. Our hostess is deaf. Guess what I gave her? A C.D. ! ARRGHHHHHH again! I apologised but luckily she saw the humour in it.
Happy Thanksgiving All!
