Dear Members, Guests and Friends,
TM Marie led us in a thoughtful invocation, followed by timely Table Topics.
We soon found out that...
* TM David makes time to be happy, take care of his wife and son and watch his favorite tv series, Landman.
* TM Pam does not make dinner, and gladly announced it to her then-retiring husband who was hoping to be the Dinner Planning Contriubutor and has become the Full-Fledged Cook. She Won Best Table Topics Award.
* TM Veronica practiced making up stories and adventures as a little girl and has continued her practice into adulthood, so... never a dull moment for her!
* TM BeckyJo could not make magic by clicking the unmute button.
* TM Christine makes a wish that her Mom will bring pizza, or she will find a special present under the tree. Her husband is also a Full Time Cook.
* TM Gail is forever grateful for her new host of friends in Church and in EarlyBirds which keep her from getting bored and isolating.
*I, Ana, learned to ask God to remove my resentments so I can make peace with myself and my fellows.
Next came our prepared speeches...
* TM Jose presented us with a mouth-watering array of Spanish culinary delights, from Jamon Iberico which lowers cholesterol to Tortilla de Patatas (Spanish Frittatta) and on to the ineffable Paella. He Won Best Speaker Award.
* TM Aleta educated us on the promises of Toastmasters, which can be fulfilled if we participate, participate, participate.
As far as evaluations are concerned...
* TM Christina showed surprising knowledge of Spanish history, mentioning King Juan Carlos I as a fan of Spanish gourmet food. Christina was last seen mixing the ingredients for a flourless Spanish Tortilla. She Won Best Evaluator Award.
* TM Gail praised TM Aleta for excellence built over the years and asked her to make a video for new members on how to embark on Pathways.
