Ladies' luncheon, Waterdown, Ontario

This past Sunday, a ladies' luncheon was held in the home of Tiffany Metcalfe of Waterdown, Ontario. On hand were Charlene Garside (nee Kish) of Ajax with baby Kaylin, Barbara Morrison (nee Mestyan) of Kitchener, Joanna Jackson of Toronto, and Virginia Parker of St. Catharines.

The ladies were all resplendant in their denim, except Kaylin, who wore an ensemble of pink and khaki.

As hostess, Ms Metcalfe was happy to show off her new house, which will soon (this July) be a site of marital bliss. Upon their arrival, the ladies nibbled the hors-d'oeuvres that had been skillfully prepared by Ms Metcalfe while looking over the very beautifully done photo albums of Ms Jackson. We will not mention that some photos were NOT yet in photo albums.... err, well, we did mention it. Oops.

For lunch, the ladies enjoyed the fruits of Mrs. Morrison's labours (a delicious lasagne), as well as bruschetta (by Ms Parker) and a wonderful chunky Greek salad (by Ms Jackson). Mrs. Garside's absolutely amazing tiramisu rounded out the meal. Debate around the table was quite lively, as the ladies discussed such varied topics as travel, work, children, "benefits", and people who wear pyjama pants in Sobey's.

After lunch, Mrs Garside and Mrs Morrison left for other society engagements, while Ms Jackson and Ms Parker enjoyed a short film projected on the absolutely huge projection screen TV that Ms Metcalfe is proud to call her own. Ms Jackson then dropped Ms Parker off at the bus station, but only after a delightful tour of downtown Hamilton's many one-way streets.

Promises have been made for the group to meet again, before Ms Parker's departure for South Korea.
