| Kathy and Jackie had the "Luck 'o' the Irish" posing with Harry, our server, and leprechaun for the night! |
| St Patrick’s Day Limericks by Beth Skelding There once was a shamrock named Jane Who tripped on some wine and went lame, She ripped her best leaf And sobbed in her grief And now has to walk with a cane. Our Carol is a wearin’ the green She fits right in with this scene. She’s lovely and cute In her high heeled boots And she’s learning the ropes as new Queen. Jenene is a sweet leprechaun fairy Her mood is quite happy and airy She’s talented and sweet Nice to each person she meets And she makes the Gadabouts merry. The Gadabout Gals are a hoot When wearing their hats they are cute Some of us wiggle We laugh and we giggle There’s never a time when we’re mute. Happy Birthday, Kathy Kline and Jackie Roberts When Kath’s and Jack’s estrogen goes where it dares To give her the odd, stray grey chin hairs And crows’ feet as well Ain’t menopause hell? Here’s hoping you’ve talents elsewheres! "Maxine" by Jenene There once was a grouch named Maxine Who tooted and made quite a scene And after each lunch With her Red Hat bunch She giggled and squawked, "It's the beans!!!" |
| We were all decked out in our finest green apparel! What a hoot. The restaurant was perfect and the food was delicious! We practically had the place all to ourselves , with very little background noise, so we were able to visit with one another. Our hostesses, Carol and Jackie, had the tables decorated so cute. I just wanted to take all those Irish Bears home with me, they were adorable!!!! (Jackie works at Build a Bear!) We played a word game (crossword puzzle, Irish theme of course), had our raffle (thank you, Sandy!) and Jane presented roses to the gals who had the most Irish heritage. They were Kathy Klein, Jackie Roberts and Sandy Maxim, and our server had some Irish in him as well. He was great! Look for the photo with him on the Making Merry at Mac's page. Beth, Carol and Jenene recited limericks they'd written with some of our members in mind. Carol brought another friend as a guest, Nancy Collins, who may be interested in joining our group. We also enjoyed delicious birthday cakes from Der Dutchman provided by our QM Jane. MMMMMmmmmmmmm GOOD! DELICIOUS! The pistachio green/ pineapple frosting really hit the spot on that angel food cake. I think that is the best angel food cake I have ever tasted! And I never knew there were other flavors of angel food cake???? Raspberry- who'd a thunk? Delicious as well!! Thank you, Jane. Well, my fellow Gadabouts , I am itching to get out and dig in the dirt and help mom get her pansies planted this afternoon before the rain sets in so I will close for now- looking forward to seeing all of you next time. Meanwhile, Smile it's Spring. Stay well and happy, Hugs, Debbie R. |
