It is fall of the year and once more time to gather my friends. partners in crime, or what ever you want to call them together. Here we have Pastor Faye Gallegos and going to her left we find Sister Barbara, Paul Gilbert, Sister Nancy, Sandy the nurse and the empty chair is mine.

We dined on mashed potatoes, chicken and noodles, then finished up with pudding filled cream puffs. We drank Chamomile tea so we wouldn't be too rowdy. And of course there was home made bread.
We had lovely conversation about the work at Los Pobres as well as what is going on around our church, the churches in the Springs. We missed Maurine and Max Hale. They have moved up North and do not travel down this way much. We discussed shelter, or lack of one, for our homeless population. I do not entertain much, but this is one of my high points. I gotta tell you, this started out years ago as a Liver and Onion lunch, because very few people like Liver. I missed last year for some reason so I was adamant about having my Liver Lunch this year. I invited the ladies and Paul and then Pastor Faye told me Sister Nancy told her how much she was looking forward to Chicken and Noodles over mashed potatoes! Since both menus are easy, I went with the noodles. Paul and I can eat anything that does not eat us first!
Any way it was a day of friendship and catching up. I cherish those times because they are so few and far between. So tonight I am tired, but happy. I just ate a bowl of leftover noodles and I think I am going to go eat that last cream puff before Mikie gets home and snarfs it down!
Good night all and sweet dreams from South Road to your house. God bless us everyone!
