So Nice We Did It Twice
Posted: June 18, 2025 Filed under: Uncategorized Leave a commentI basically teach mah Jongg just so I can have meals with friends and stay at friends vacation homes. Yes, I taught two classes today and those ladies were delightful, but the highlight of my day was my friends who come to see me when I was between classes.
I was scheduled to have lunch with Mary Jo, she invited Jill, which was great because I was not sure she was going to be down at the beach this week. Then Mary Jo invited Trina and Kay. With only a one hour lunch break it was not enough time to talk with everyone. So I did not get a chance to catch up with Mary Jo at all. Now I will have to call her when I am driving home tomorrow to talk about what we didn’t get to talk about at lunch.
After my Beyond class I did a tiny amount of fast shopping on my way to meet my friends at dinner. Ann had told me to go to Cecil and Finch and I tried on a cute dress that I loved, then I looked at the tag. It had been marked down to $29.95. I asked the sales girl if that could possibly be the price and she said, “absolutely.” What a great find.
I walked around the corner to Aqua and met up with Ann, Neppie and Reba for a redux dinner. We sat on the porch and had a delightful time. The best thing I ate was the amuse bouche which was a white bean, cabbage and carrot salad in some citrus cilantro dressing. We asked the server exactly what was in it, but were certain the answer we got was short a few key ingredients. I wish I had more than one bite because I would love to recreate it.

Ann and I came back to her place and talked too long tonight and I fear I am going to be short on sleep. I need to be sharp tomorrow for the Beyond class because we have not been winning enough games. Still fun and lots of good teachable moments, but I want them to win more too.
I’ll be back next week at Coral Bay. Come learn with me.
