Sitting down to a "Family Style" dinner gave us more time to get to know each other. Marv insisted that we clean our plates, as those were the words of his mother and most mothers when we were growing up.. Keep in mind this is "All you can eat"...........boy did we!!! When we couldn't finish something Marv was right there to give us a helping hand
Pat (Charlie®’s wife) is a vegetarian.....we all marveled at here beautiful fruit dish that she couldn’t even finish. At the end of the meal we were served ice cream....on top were these plastic shaped animals and mermaids. Half way thru eating mine I noticed that my mermaid was missing an arm
I then turned to Marv and asked if he would like to finish my ice cream....you know the clean your plate man
Well needless to say around this time we were all getting a little loose and began thinking of exotic things to do to these plastic shaped pieces that had accompanied our ice cream……and so the giraffe comes into play again
There wasn’t a place we didn’t enter where we had other folks joining in on our conversation…..everyone could tell we were a great group to be with.
