I do like parties, but since we're not supposed to have "parties", we had a porch gathering. Food and drinks brought by all. Cookie dough provided by Rosie & Sylvia. Live music by Issac, Lee & Pat. It was great! I stayed up late, I drank gin & Sprite (the local store was out of tonic), I had a lot of fun.Luke, the Wrangler, (not the same as the river guide) impressed us all with his skill of nibbling off the top of aluminium beer cans- aah to be 18, away from home and a cowboy! Erica and I shared lots of cookie dough. Pat, the baker, made me a special birthday dessert of orange tart filling inside chocolate cups. Apparently, somehow everyone had gotten the impression I liked chocolate ( I have no idea how that happened), so I got quite stocked up with all sorts of brownies, chocolate bars and more!
Oh yes, then we pulled the costumes out from last year's crew costume party- what's a porch gathering without dressing up in a Cowboy Cheerleader version of a Elvis jumpsuit. Then a guest, we believe the 17-year old, streaked not once, but twice past the porch. All in all a fun night!
Bring it 33!
