The Happy Hatter Social
What happens when you get together with a bunch of wonderful, fun women and direct them to a table filled with stuff?
I wasn't quite sure
how the ladies would respond to this part of our Social...
I pondered it a bit...
and we chatted as a committee...
and then decided we would give it a go.
So, on Wednesday morning
I wandered around the house
picking up this and that,
I wandered into my sewing room
and looked in all of my buckets,
I picked up a bag full of tulle
and stuff for hair bows,
and grabbed the curling ribbon rack
then into the basement I went...
I looked into box after box
and found a whole bunch of interesting stuff; feathers and pipe cleaners,
beads and lace,
lots and lots of ribbons;
bits of flowers,
parts for corsages;
stuff left over from projects...
I also had purchased some colorful paper plates, pipe cleaners,
and silly little party hats.
We covered a couple of tables
and tossed all of this stuff
into the center
added a stapler,
glue sticks,
wet glue
and hot glue...

Truly is amazing
what can be
created
with
a pile of stuff.
The sisters did this and that,
some walked up,
dug around a tiny bit
and then walked away with a "hat".
Others stared,
some truly walked away with a "masterpiece", some had hats
worthy of the derby.
Definitely, a fun visit time activity.
We enjoyed a scrumptious dinner
Chicken salad croissants,
a delightful salad
with walnuts, cranberries, and feta cheese,
the most refreshing fruit salad I have ever had, berries and grapes...yum.
And for dessert,
all of our favorites...lemon cakes, creme puffs and brownie bites.
And of course,
the required unbelievable
collection of Chocolates.
We enjoyed some shared talents
(thank you so very much)
Amazing displayed talents
(and truly, what a selection of talent)
Great evening.
Oh yes,
I forgot
and I went home
with a few less boxes of stuff!
