I am not sure who let her in. I can see I will have to call security. |
It is our Mardi Gras. The parade lasts hour upon hour.
The city fountains are flowing green, we're eating green grits and leprechauns are trolling the streets.
The hotels are booked a year in advance. It is best to have a relative or good friend to visit.
My two awesome daughters are visiting me for
I will be back later with lots of pictures and a narrative of the BIG day.

I wasn't blogging then. These pics are just candids |
I hosted my garden club's monthly meeting a couple of days before St Patrick's Day. Our club's name is
"The Heritage Garden Club".
Don't you think that's an appropriate name for the oldest city in Georgia?
 |
Early arrivals |
A great time was had by all, as is usual and customary.
We range in age from 30 to 95.
If you remember the Women's Bridge Club
in "Midnight in the Garden of Good Evil"
You have seen our garden club.

My dining room is not large so we had two tables. This is the kitchen table. |
 |
Enameled charger, white dinner plate - HomeGoods, Salad plate - HomeGoods and TJ, Flatware - everyday, Green Boopie - my collection. |

Dessert dishes, Green Boopie - My collection |
One dear member is a 95 years old and "hot to trot". She has her own meeting in the midst of the rest of us. She speaks of triumphs and conquests of years gone by. Don't make eye contact or you will get flashed.
There is the sweet member who always gets lost driving to the meeting. She refuses to accept a ride, meet in a central location or follow. One particular member always goes out to find her and brings her along, in time for dessert.
 |
Everyone started arriving before I got close ups of the dining room table. |
We have our beloved "Seasonal Sally" (not her real name). She is our belle of the ball, always dressed to celebrate the holiday of the month. This lovely lady will knock your socks off.
 |
I am not identifying anyone! |
Then you have me and my cohorts. We watch it all, while giggling like school girls. We're ever thankful that we haven't gotten to that point, just yet. Of course we secretly wish we had the guts to emulate "Seasonal Sally". Our pic was not publish worthy. LOL!
I sincerely hope you enjoyed joining our garden club meeting. You are welcome back anytime. Just bring along your sense of humor. You will need it!
As mentioned afore, I will have my lovely daughters down for the week leading up to the festivities. I will be reporting back about THEIR antics.
I am linking up to everyone I can think of so be sure to hop over to party with these gracious hostesses.
Now don't forget to sign up for my giveaway. HERE !!
