We were lazy this morning, not getting up until almost 7:00 AM. I guess we know it is going to be a busy day! Mary wrapped and stamped a package for our friend Virgil so we could take it to the post office. He is 93 and like the large Sudoku puzzles.
Sudoku is a unique new word puzzle where you place a list of given words into a 9×9 grid according to Sudoku rules. The words must all be placed in the grid so that each of the nine rows, columns, and blocks only contains unique letters. Words may overlap, and each cell must contain a letter from at least one word.
We are off to “Girls’ Night Out” at the Elks, our weekly outing. We were joined by Iris and Will, Bob and Lacey, Mike and Linda Ash, and Bob Z. It was a gaggle!
I put the camera into theater mode, and the picture came out quite nicely!
The meal was delicious; the Elks did a magnificent job in the dining arena. The steak was perfect, and the veggies were just right.
I bet my butcher he couldn’t reach the meat on the top shelf. He said he wasn’t going to bet with me. He told me the steaks were too high.
I just had to ask Mary, “Is a vegetarian permitted to eat animal crackers?” She did a cup of soup and the spa salad, but she got some steak also!
Confucius say… epileptic lettuce farmer makes “seizure salad.”
We returned home, worked around the house for a while, and then got ready to go to Patty’s Place in Seal Beach.

We met up with Robin, Pam, and Cathy. The six of us howled and hooted for two solid hours. It was a blast. Pam is still working primarily from home, so it works out fine.
Colleen was our designated driver this evening, so I enjoyed several glasses of wine; perhaps that was the reason for all the fun! Mary joined right in, and Robin was flying high.
