Just another little weekend re-cap...

Can I just say again how much freeking fun we had?!?! And I swear - Captain Marvel may have made an appearance!



Shazam!!!

I feel so blessed to have spent time with these folks...

Right from the get go, I knew things were going to be fantastic - my plane had run a little late (hey - I wasn't driving!) but Zonker (a consummate gentleman), the lovely Christina, and the sweet and sassy Oddy had all decided to wait on me after having bribed and beaten gently coerced a guy from the ground crew to swear on his life check and make sure that I was indeed on the plane. And that the plane was in route and not come and gone And that I was well taken care of and would be there shortly...

A more welcoming crew does not exist! Hugs and introductions all around and we were off to Casa de Feisty.

Christina's kitchen is something to behold - not an incredibly large space, but so well designed that numerous people can be working together and not feel crowded. And Christina? A Maestra of the highest order - the whole place runs like a well oiled machine. All.the. time. It's perfect. And she fills it with not only the most wonderful culinary delights, but the best of the best people as well. I was so fortunate to meet:

Sam and his lovely Bride. More charming than can be imagined. What a joy these folks are! A-team all the way...

Christina's (blogless) friend Susan - again a delight. And Feisty? Must be her middle name...

Zonker (who I met at the airport) is beloved by kid and creature alike - and rightfully so. Calm and debonair under all kinds (and I do mean *all* kinds) of fire. So happy to have made his acquaintance.

Dash the consummate host and master of the grill. A southern gentleman through and through...

Michele and her hubby are an absolute class act! Even when they slip in a zinger. :-) So much fun...

And when Lolly enters a room - it's all sweet smiles and a genteel influence. Even when she's taking your money at the poker table it's with such grace that you almost want to thank her for it. Almost...

El Capitan has a wonderful spirit and can command the attention of a room when he tells a story - it was great to meet him.

And finally Trooper and Trooper's Gal - the time was too short but it was delightful to get go visit with them both. What a delightful couple you are - loving and witty all at the same time!

Throughout the weekend there was an endless supply of food, laughter, zingers, games, laughter, conversations, stories, laughter, singing and more... And after all was said and done - I think we even ended up with a theme song... Feel free to whistle sing along.



Gotta love it.
