Saturday evening I attended a wonderful party. It was a dress up affair on the 18th floor of a nice hotel. (I wore a red and black dress I last wore ten years ago when I was thinner and blonder. Oh well! My earrings were new.)
My friend welcomed everyone, and was thoughtful to give me a copy of his welcome in English!
The food and drink were fabulous.
I was happy to see people I had met before and glad to meet many more people.
There was a quiz game, but I had no idea what it was about. I was on the B team.

After the quiz part there was an additional "Rock, Paper, Scissors" to determine the winners.
Thank you for including me in this Spring Party! I had such a good time.
I attended a fun dinner party with great company and delicious food. I didn't take photos of the people because I couldn't ask permission of everyone to post their pictures on my blog. There were some people I had met before and some new. It didn't matter that we didn't understand each other's words completely. Everyone was so very kind to me and I appreciate being included in this great get-together.
I was invited to and happy to attend the first BEBEC Harunoyoseue ga - denigu cafe or what I called the Garden Party. BEBEC stands for Be Encouraged, Be Emancipated, Community. The group has other events planned for the coming year, including a Mother's Day flower project, a cooking party, and a Christmas party. There will also be a radio interview on station KMIX on April 8th at 6 pm.
The first part of the party was making a basket flower garden. Unfortunately, I forgot to take pictures when we were doing this. My hands were full of dirt anyway. It was a very professional presentation on how to take the plants from the container to arrange them in the basket and how to take care of the little garden afterwards. My thumbs are not green, but I will try to take care of my garden.
Food preparation is not my strong point so I usually eat very simple meals. This luncheon was just amazing! Quite different from my usual fare. Everything was very delicious!
I really enjoyed this gathering and feel like I've made some new friends. Thank you for including me!
