Holiday Luncheon

7 Replies

All, today it is my job to host my department's holiday luncheon. I enjoy it because what I enjoy most is helping others and making others happy. It's not for the glory. In fact I hate being pointed out. Not being able to host a family get together is probably what is killing me most this year. Anyhow, I'd like each of you to join my luncheon (virtually) and let us celebrate together. Now I want each of you to come however makes you feel best. You need not leave your home. Wear your pajamas you've been in for a week. We'll keep the room quiet & dark or bright and loud, whatever suits you. We play a game of Chinese Pollyanna (Dirty Santa, White Elephant). Play if you like. What would you like for your holiday feast? What gift would you bring if you play? What gift would you like? All are welcome at this table.

Merry Christmas
