December 2011 Ladies' Luncheon

A view of the city of Birmingham and fellowship with Christian friends was enjoyed by the 15 ladies of our Sunday School Class who enjoyed a festive lunch today at The Club on Red Mountain. This day was planned by Marsha Henderson and brought out our largest crowd in 2 years of monthly luncheons! We appreciate Marsha's work on planning and decorating the table which included three floral arrangements that were taken home by lucky diners with the correct color candy wrapper! Those ladies were Gleeda Alvis, Jane Zobrosky and Nancy Dorr. We invite others of you to join us in January on Wednesday the 18th when we'll be going to Firebirds at Patton Creek. That day is being planned by Carolyn Horne.

November Ladies' Luncheon 2011

The ten ladies attending today's luncheon enjoyed their time at P. F. Chang's! Some ordered appetizers and we ordered a variety of entrees and Jane only remembered to make a picture of her Hot and Sour soup! The food was as pretty as it was delicious!. Dianne Bonner was the only experienced Chop Stick user among the group! Gathering at The Summit were Barbara Tharp, Brenda Bryant, Carolyn Horne, Dianne Bonner, Gleeda Alvis, Glynda Bailey, Jane B and Jane Z, Lisa Long and Sheila Lowery. We were happy to have Brenda and Glynda with us today as they've only been able to come a few times. Make plans to join us in December on the 8th (*note* not the usual 18th) at The Club. Marsha Henderson has made our reservations and we'll send an email before the date we need to turn in a number. This is a month that we will need to know ahead of time who will be joining us in order for Marsha to reserve an area that will accommodate our number. For December we moved the date up to avoid the Christmas luncheon crowds.

August 2011 Ladies' Luncheon

Lunch followed by a tour of the lovely historical Arlington Antebellum Home and Gardens was enjoyed by eleven of our ladies today. This was arranged by Nancy Dorr and we thank her very much for doing it! After lunch in a large dining room that was a part of the original garage that housed one of the first motorized vehicles in town and overlooked the side gardens, we were given a guided tour of the main home. Dianne Bonner was allowed to play a pump organ that was on display and we all enjoyed listening and watching her. Arlington was home to many well-to-do families after it was constructed somewhere after 1842. The actual date is unknown. It became the property of The City of Birmingham in 1953. We hope other ladies of the class will plan to join us on Wednesday, September 21st when we will be going to Lovoy's in SOHO.

July 2011 LADIES' LUNCHEON

A feeling of being in Tuscany accompanied the lunch enjoyed by 8 of our ladies today! Bellinis on Hwy 119 was the location chosen by Sheila Lowery for this month. Gathering for a nice time together were Carolyn Horne, Sheila Lowery, Barbara Tharp, Jane Zobrosky, Gleeda Alvis, Jane Beasley, Nancy Dorr and our newest class member, Lisa Long. So glad you joined us today, Lisa! Mark the date of Thursday, August 18th on your calendar. On that day Nancy Dorr has made reservations for us at Arlington Antebellum Home and Gardens for one of their "Thursdays at Arlington" special luncheons. There will be a set price and a set menu. A recent one was $15 including dessert and that is probably standard. Being the picky eater that Jane B is, if she is game to go for it surely y'all can be too! Look forward to seeing many of you on that day!

Ladies' Luncheon Friday, March 18
Three Earred RabbitSeven ladies enjoyed lunch today here in Trussville at The Three Earred Rabbit! We were happy to have Zolinda Cochran with us for the first time! Also present to taste the sampling of desserts that one of the ladies there was so gracious to serve us was Marsha Henderson, Nancy Dorr, Shelia Lowery, Carol Rogers, Barbara Tharp and Jane Beasley.
We were having such a good time that one of us (I won't call my name) forgot to get out the camera to make our picture! The last thing I thought before I left home was to remember the camera.
Thanks very much to Nancy Dorr for making our reservations for today. Next month will be on Monday, April 18th at Chuy's at the Summit. That will be arranged by Shelia Lowery.
Ladies, make your plans to join us in April!

Eleven ladies enjoyed a festive lunch at The Chocolate Biscuit on Friday, December 17. We were filled with the Christmas spirit and enjoyed a great time of fun, food, and fellowship. Of course, what would be lunch with a group of ladies without shopping? A few went to Southern Magnolia Gifts before leaving and the ornaments and nativity set pictured were purchased by Sheila. Ann Havicus was the lucky winner of the door prize provided by Jane Beasley. The January luncheon will be Tuesday, January 18.

Meeting for lunch at Bella in the Village at Lee Branch today were 7 of our ladies. We enjoyed a delicious lunch and then browsed in a lovely little shop close by.

Glynda Bailey picked the smiley face from the bag to take home the door prize!

We hope more of you can join us next month when we will be having lunch at Oscar's in the Bimingham Museum of Art. This will be on Thursday, November 18th.

We are talking now about where we would like to go in December for our Christmas luncheon. Several locations are being checked on. That date and location will be announced after the November lunch.

Under the leadership of Cathey Hall, our class prepared dinner for 30 fire fighters and police officers at the Main Fire Station on Sunday afternoon, July 18, 2010. Our thanks to Cathey for the work she put into this and for all who contributed to make this such a success.

All of them would not eat at once and were to come by as they could. We met with approximately 12 of the fire fighters and would have stayed a little longer but they had to respond to a call so we all had to rush out of the station! We were thankful to have about 26 there to express our thanks to them and in a blessing Jim Summers asked for their protection as they serve our community.

We were happy to participate in Operation "Go" and do thank God for the service providers in our community.

There were 10 ladies who enjoyed lunch on July 15th, 2010 at The Gardens Cafe at The Birmingham Botanical Gardens. We missed those of you who weren't able to be with us today.

As if we needed an "ice breaker" we each listed on a small piece of paper the first paying job that we ever had and then we guessed the person we thought went with the job. Some were very interesting!

Nancy Dorr brought the Door Prize today and Dianne Bonner was the lucky one to draw the smiley face from the bag to take it home!

Make your plans now to be with us on Wednesday, August 18th, when we will journey to The Ruby Radish Tearoom in Remlap. Nancy Dorr will be making the plans for this lunch for us.

The 6 ladies who gathered for lunch today, June 18th, had a lovely time at The TownHouse Tea Shoppe in Mt. Laurel! We appreciate Wanda Campbell making the arrangements for us and for having a special guest join us. It was Carolyn Horne!! We all thought that recently retired Carolyn was lounging on the beach but she came home and talked with Wanda about lunch today without any others of us knowing it. This was the first luncheon Wanda or Carolyn had either one been able to attend.

The door prize today was brought by Jane Zobrosky and the smiley face was pulled from the bag by Carolyn Horne. She comes home from the beach, surprises us for lunch and gets the door prize, too! I'm sure she's glad she came today!

We missed all our other ladies who weren't able to join us today. You really missed a special place! Since the 18th of July is on a Sunday, we chose to meet on Thursday, July 15th. If all goes as planned, Shelia Lowery will make arrangements for us to have lunch at Kathy G's at The Botanical Gardens. Hope more of you are able to be with us then. Mark you calendars!

Brio's at Brookwood Mall was the setting for the Ladies' Luncheon today, May 18th. I think I've found a new favorite place! Eleven ladies enjoyed a delicious lunch and good fellowship.

We were happy to have joining us, Jana Williams, a friend and co-worker of Dianne Bonner. Also joining us for the first time was Diane Summers. So glad to have you both with us today!

Nancy Dorr picked the paper with the smiley face so she took home the door prize today.

Plan to join us in June on Friday the 18th. We'll try again to see if we can go to the new tea room in Mt. Laurel. I'm really looking forward to that when Wanda is able to arrange it for us!

Mudtown Eat & Drink in Cahaba Heights was where 9 of our ladies gathered for lunch on April 15th. We had a good time passing around pictures we each brought that were made before we were school age and having everyone guess who it was!

Barbara Tharp took home the door prize today because she pulled out the slip of paper with the smiley face!

Note the date for May!! It will be back to our original date of the 18th and that is a Tuesday. Our plans for Mt. Laurel had to be postponed so we will work out a date the tea room is open another time. The location for May 18th will be Brio's at Brookwood Mall. Hope to see you that day!
