Well, it's that time of year. And we SNFers (say "sniffers") were ready for it.
We had our annual Christmas party at The Groves club house in Land 'O Lakes north of Tampa and had the dinner catered. We had a "FEED WHAT WAS A FEED" to say the least. The food seemed to be especially good this year. Turkey, ham, stuffing (dressing for those north of the mason-dixon line), veggies, salad and a special cake. Really, really good food.
As good as the food was, the "mingling" was even better. We really had a good time together. We had a raffle drawing for prizes, then a "Chinese gift exchange", and, would you believe, an indoor snowball fight. Fun night.
We had a fabulous time and if you missed it, you really missed something special.
