Another Mess

Barbie was the last to get to the luncheon.

CT, Sister and DaFord sat at table one and Barbie joined them.

Shirley, Mz Fire and Mz PB&J sat at table two along with me and those below.

Bets, Lucky J and Mz JC and I sat beside Mz JC. Lucky J and Mz JC were the hostess this month.

Only eleven of the twenty four members were able to make it this month. It was more intimate but those who did not show were missed.

We met at Macaroni Grill in Opry Mills and we had a grand time as usual. I had a monster scallop and spinach, walnut salad with orange vinaigrette dressing. I had a glass of peach ice tea that matched the salad. Then they brought out little six inch round loaves of homemade bread. To say I acted like a little piglet is an understatement.

The salad came in a bowl the size of what I would use at home to serve our entire family and Ed's family too. Why do they bring such enormous serving and then the news keeps saying we are over weight society. I got to eating and talking and then I ate some more and before it was over I had ate way too much but NOT ALL OF IT. I could not have eaten it all if I had been a starving Marvin. I also did not finish the tea. Then I get a guilty feeling of spending money and not eating it all and some poor person would have loved to eat what I was sending back to be thrown away. Since I do not go to the Mills very often (like once in two or three years) I had planned to shop so a dogie bag would have died in the silver bullet.

Sister, MzPB&J and I started on one end and work our way all around the mill. I indulged myself with different colors shoes. It was fun to touch feel and smell along the way. I had never shopped with them before and both are a hoot to hang out with.

This was suppose to be Barbie but it is only a red X so I reloaded her and it took up top.

I think Prince counted eighteen box woods and he trimmed all of them. The April frost and drought last year were really hard on them. Then I racked all the debris and leave from under them and he hauled them off to a place on the farm that was showing it was washing in the recent rains. This picture was taken last year so they are not as bushy now. I noticed today that they are beginning to put out new growth and it is music to the eyes.

The Kitty Justice is that you miss the big numbers but a small group now and then helps you get to know one another better.
