Tonight was the annual volunteer appreciation party at the Tobin, the theater I usher for.

The food was a mixed bag for me because it was partially like Thanksgiving in July: turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes, cranberry sauce, mashed potatoes, rolls, carbs, carbs, carbs.

I had a thin slice of turkey and a dollop of cranberry sauce. Neither was all that appealing.

The roast beef was marginally better. The broccoli rabe was in a lousy sauce. The pickled jalapeno was wonderful.

So was the salad table with crudites. Fresh, delicious.

Sadly the desserts were mostly mediocre. Cake balls, mini cheesecakes, banana bread pudding, mini pineapple upside down cakes. I had a cake ball (too much frosting) and a tiny fruit tart that was good, so were the fresh berries.

The theme was Casino Royale with gambling. Boring.

It was fun talking with people. And I eventually danced, which was fun.

I won a prize from the raffle table. I took a pair of socks commemorating the musical Ain’t Too Proud.

So, aside from the food and the theme, I enjoyed myself. Putting on a tux in 90-degree weather isn’t fun.

A lot of people did not dress up. I think because of the heat.

That's great, John!  Ours was just last month. :)

They do! Ordered. The vaporizer I ordered arrived, didn't work, and is getting returned, probably Friday. Instead, I got the small personal one where you stick your face on what looks like an oxygen mask.
