The TEC Club met September 13, at Martha’s B&B. After checking to see that everyone had contributed their quarter, the pot was found to be short. No one could remember or wouldn’t confess to the omission, so the communal kitty got the games underway. Sharon Smith, sub for Susan Braams, won high, Mary Anne Pennel, second high, and Merylan Lowrey, low.
Norma Bradfield was hostess, offering us either peanut butter pie or turtle pie. Having no experience with turtles, I had the peanut butter piled high with whipped topping. The girls informed me that turtle pie had no turtles in it but was a special kind of chocolate. The reviews all agreed it was delicious.
Pam Cooper had to leave early to help with emergency machinery repairs and missed some really interesting information, at least to me. I never knew you could unscrew your false teeth. Now I wonder what a tooth screwdriver looks like. Being such a painful topic, it did elicit a lot of laughter.
Then the conversation switched to turmeric. That was a spice Mother always used in pickles, but now it is touted as an anti-inflammatory and joint aid. If the price of the capsules is any indication, it had better work.
Next we discussed all the problems we have with various eye doctors. The topper of those stories was one that had the lenses upside down. Such valuable information can be found only at pitch. What a game!
