RCTQ Meeting: Rita

About 10 days ago I had the pleasure of meeting Rita and her
family! She was in this area on vacation, with her DH and her
sister. We arranged to meet at the closest LQS. We all arrived at
the same time, and quickly introduced ourselves. After careful
consideration, Rita and I each managed to find a few fabrics to
buy. She ended up with more, but had an advantage, with her
sister helping to find goodies!

Then we all went to a local Barbecue restaurant. I think it is
more fun for visitors to go to local, rather than chain,
restaurants. We enjoyed a good meal, and I certainly enjoyed our
visit. To top it off, Rita presented me with a generous gift: a
box of luxury chocolate that was local to her area, in
Massachusetts. The chocolate was excellent, BTW, and I am glad to
have 'vetted' it for Rita. She now can buy more of same for herself.

It sure is fun to meet other RCTQ people, and their lovely families!

I am back at my computer again after a three week (mostly) hiatus. My
husband, sister and I very much enjoyed meeting with Pat. Her LQS has a
great selection and I am glad that my sister "helped". Otherwise, I
might have missed out on a few of my goodies :-) Pat is a lovely
hostess and we all enjoyed meeting her. I hope that I have the
opportunity to shop with her again soon.
