The Tuesday Evening Club met Tuesday, December 10, 2019, at noon at my home for our annual Christmas gala. The fun began when Debbie Johnson came carrying in a huge foil pan of ham balls from Paula’s restaurant and soon other members brought in the rest of the menu. We always invite four ladies who substitute for us to join us for our Christmas feast. That makes three tables of players with winners and losers changing places every round. Merylan Lowrey and I drew table one and managed to stay there, sharing high score. Margie O’Riley won low.

After the games we gathered at the dining table again to enjoy Merylan Lowrey’s beautiful cake. Everyone exclaimed over the bright red color of the cake covered with white icing and  Christmas sprinkles. With a cup of vanilla ice cream it was a delicious way to begin the gift exchange. Grab bag gifts were exchanged with all the chatter that goes around after each gift was opened.

I believe everyone went home smiling and even the weather cooperated. What a Merry Christmas!!
