We had a potluck lunch today at the office. I don’t know when I have eaten so much aside from a major holiday meal – even at Easter I think I ate less. The food was just too good and it is pretty hard not to try a little bit of everything. The deer sausage was fantastic as were the ribs and Penny made something that she thought were called palashkis – but none of us knew the proper name. It didn’t matter – they were meat filled little bread thingies and they were good. And then the dessert – Annette made something called drumstick cake and it was soooo good that it was irresistible. And there were other dishes every bit as good. One of the best staff meetings we have ever had!
But then we had to go back to work. It is very hard to stay awake when one is very comfortably full.
When patients got a bit mixed around and it ended up that our therapist had been assigned a patient she could not treat – it was out of her scope of practice – we offered to let her treat one of the little kids that needed some fillings instead. Our therapist is the one who brought the ribs. She has a secret recipe and will not give it out. We almost were able to offer to treat her little patient in exchange for the recipe. But she caught herself just as she was slipping into sin and refused to make the exchange!
Then tonight I went to hear a presentation on gardening that the church women sponsored. Gardening and a variety of desserts. I like to garden but this weather makes spring seem far away still. It was a great evening – they had a great presentation. And the desserts were too good to resist – but I only had a little. I was still too full from lunch.
