Good morning everyone..............before coming here I went online to check on mruffruff's flight (Mary). It tells me that even though it left even later than scheduled it DID ARRIVE in Washington Dulles. However, it arrived too late for her to make her connection home. It was supposed to leave at 11:40 pm - and it didn't leave until 1:13 am...........
Slick and I took her to the airport last night. What a fun and dear lady! She wanted an adventure - well she sure as heck got one.
Her walking around the streets of Los Angeles at 2 in the morning is what knocked me out. - No hotel reservation - can you believe that - with a confirmation paper in hand and she had her sister call the hotel to say she was late!
Debbie, thanks for answering the "how many"........we did the same thing last night and came up with a total of 28 people in attendance.
But then you have to add the four firemen! WHOO HOOOO!!
The young man that attended is Pam's son in law. The unknown couple Janice and Chris are dear friends who own Lexi the snowshoe siamese that I house sit for. I have posted before about Lexi.
We never did hear a final yea or nay from Luckies4me..........., but she didn't arrive.
And yes.......dear Lut! Do all of you recall that Lut is the reason we have the BBQ at all? Three years ago she was going to visit Los Angeles and I organized a BBQ in her honor. At the last minute she was ill and her whole trip was canceled. I went ahead with the BBQ for the locals and the rest is history -
Yesterday we had a wonderful long conversation with the mayor, Karen - and WE TOLD HER EVERYTHING! If some of you get banned
I am going to tease Sara here (Edwina's Secretary) because she did arrive with these lovely bottles of wine...........a beautiful blue bottle - and obviously some red wines. The next thing I knew Sara is pouring wine for everyone............so if I haven't properly thanked you - I will by private message..............I have already thanked Johanna for her exquisite box of goodies.....YUM! There are many other thanks you's in the works!
Today - Monday - Richard is cooking dinner for us........us being Kelly, Staci, Tonya, Slick, Laurie and myself.
I have laughed and laughed because not only have I not provided a meal (except for the BBQ) - my guests have cooked all of the meals.
Laurie - Thursday night made to die for crab cakes with fresh lump crabmeat brought by Laurie from Maryland!
Friday - Slick made a chili that has the most exotic ingredients
(13 spices) and it is out of this world. One or two containers are in my freezer.
Saturday - BBQ
Sunday - Slick made omelets for all of us and we munched on leftover fruit and potatos.
Sunday night - leftovers!
Monday - Richard is cooking a fabulous Mexican meal.
We have talked about a Pet Talk cookbook on Pet Talk before.........well all of you will want the above recipes for sure!
More later......................
