Sub-Zero Carbo-Load Dinner

by Paul Brown on 30 May 2008

Tonight at the Eagle, Team Bear held its big send-off dinner, Sub-Zero. Pete King threw together a fantastic dinner of steak, a delightful Alfredo with mushrooms, giant-sized veggies, corn on the cob, a beautiful salad that had craisins and maple glazed pecans, and cheesecake brownies for dessert.

I got there in time to catch my breath and be the donation collector at the head of the buffet. It was really great to be able to greet each person and welcome them to our dinner party. I love doing that sort of thing.

After dinner, Pete got up and said a few words, then Sister Mary Juanita High gave a short blessing of the crowd, and she was her usual kitschy, elegant self. Her habit tonight was every elegant and beautiful. Sister Uma God was giving a short sneak preview of one of her red dresses.

After hanging at the Eagle for a while, Sister Mary gave Sister Uma and I a ride home, seeing as we live on adjacent blocks of Fell Street.

I have stuff to do still before I sleep. But tomorrow is Day 0 – Orientation Day.
