Luncheon today

Today I went to a lovely luncheon at my friend, Georgia's. She's the Italian with the Irish husband.  So we were into the St. Patrick's Day theme, sporting our traditional green attire and enjoying her shamrocks strewn tasetfully on the table.  Do I sound sort of like a society page writer? She served a delightful French chicken with a light spinach, walnut feta salad with a vinegarette dressing.  The dessert was a no bake keylime pie that was wonderful. I loved the tart, citrus flavor. So I got all the recipes now so that when I have a luncheon up norht, I can whip out my recipes and I'm ready to go.  What I like is that they, not only are impressive and good, but they are quick and easy. I can do that.

Only problem is chicken can make you sleepy, especially when mixed with a sultry day.  Sitting out on the lanai with the slight breeze and warm weather is just what it takes to put one in mood for a nap.  And we're having ground turkey sloppy joes for dinner tonight(what else do you do with frozen ground turkey you neglected to take out? Notice I didn't say forgot to take out) which will just keep me on this sleepy even keel I'm on.

Since I'm retired and can do what ever I want that is legal and moral, I could go take a little cat nap.  But, I've tried that before, and as soon as I shut my eyes, I'm wide awake.  Ah, that's the answer!  maybe I'll go try it.  However, I want my daughter to know that I do not take naps. (  She thinks that's all we old er people do is take our afternoon nap everyday.
