Waving and Rubs, High Tea, Game Time and Actress

 

Lily is waving at all 

of you and saying 

good morning!

Actually, this was Lily kicked

back with her paw in the 

air while getting her 15 min.

morning rub down.

She enjoys her rub downs.

On Saturday, 

I was going to go back to 

my brother's house to help 

with more packing but the cold

of last week really messed with 

my pain level, esp. my hip.

I also had an event that I 

was invited to attend, and since

that was a sitting event, I knew 

my hip would be okay. Packing

however, was not what I 

thought I would be able to do.

I had thought about doing both

since Liz (event planner and doer)

lives only 20 mins from my 

brother's new home and just 

a short drive to the other house.

Was going to stay the night, but

decided to come home instead

since I was not going to pack.

That makes for a long

day, drive 1.5 hours, eat, 

drink, talk, eat, laugh, 

eat, play games, 

eat and drive back 1.5 hours

after dark, but I wanted my bed.

Anyway, Liz does a High Tea

at the first of Jan. every yr. however, 

life sometimes gets in the way,

plus, weather with snow so 

we had to cancel the first attempt.

Liz left Christmas up for us.

Such a pretty tree, but the

lights got in the way of

showing it odd.

Wow....the FOOD!

Scones, a duck wrapped

thing, sandwiches, 

meatballs and sweets.

The table was sat with 

Liz's nonna's china.

Hot tea and a champagne 

drink called a poinsettia.

After we all stuffed ourselves,

we took some pics as a group,

played a game and then 

we ate again, snacks brought

by the rest of us for game time.

Theresa made this, 

a cranberry, jalapeno dip. 

Served over this.

I took bruschetta.

Oh. the food!

I only ate a couple 

bites out of each item cause

I knew I would get sick if

I ate everything.  

But, it was all good.

We played a game called

Poetry and Neanderthals.

Seriously, not sure where they find

these games! lol

This is some of us sitting around

at game time, notice I have

the bat. The bat is what you hit

the neanderthal with when they mess up!

 

Liz, our hostess in the blue and white.

 Nancy beside her and 

Dana.

Oh, the laughs.

Here is your knowledge part of 

this post.

I had no clue and I 

had never heard this before.

Interesting fact.

Hope you had a great weekend,

Pam
