July 28th, 2012 - Pig Roast
July 15th - Tube Steaks at Danie`s
Just for a nice get together over the summer, our fair Vice Queen Danie held a `tube steak` special. I can`t believe I didn`t get any pics, nor did anyone, that`s because we were having a good time. Huge turnout, hot weather, and wonderful friends. We thank you Danie.
June event - Upper Canada Playhouse
June 23rd - Upper Canada Playhouse in Morrisburg
The play was "Hot Bed Hotel" and very funny, as room mix-ups and crazy character appeared, with a surprise ending.
The setting of the Playhouse is well set up and we recommend anyone to go see a play there.
We laughed and afterwards on the way home stopped for food at a family restaurant (can't remember the name)that was pretty good too.

March - May Events 2012
Ok, like usual it's time to do my homework again and get caught up, so here goes....
Oh Boy, I'm cursing. I just spent 45 minutes updating this blog and poof in a second it was all gone. Must have hit the wrong key. Oh I was saying bad stuff. Now I'm laughing because I gotta do it all again. Do you think I can remember what I wrote the first time. Well this update should be a good one, hmmmm!
You too can add to our blog in the "comments", I would love to hear your thoughts and memories of the events.
I'm also looking for pictures, I haven't figured out how to get mine off my "smart" phone. Damn thing is smarter than me! I know you've got 'em, don't make me come after you. lol
Well I got to go back in time now....

Breakfast at KS on the Keys restaurant and Home and Garden Show @ the new CE Centre.
Breakfast was good, excellent. Nice family restaurant but a little loud. We love to eat though, so nothing like a good chow-down. My eggs Benedict were delious. I was a great turnout for the food followed by the Home and Garden Show. It was umungus, huge, gigantic, etc. Can't believe the size of that place. In fact a little overwhelming, alot of really cool ideas, makes me wish I had alot more $$$$.

Rideau River Reds 7th Birthday party
@ the Japanese Village
Yes, 7 years and still going strong. You ladies are the bestest of the best. I love seeing you monthly for the last seven years and can call you all my good friends now. Amazing what can happen when four daring ladies who didn't even know each other, get together. I love it. Ok enough mush, back to the blog, which of course involves more food.
Yes flames were flying and we were frying, no just kidding. But I do think I was missing an eyebrow after. It was delicious and almost the whole group came out. Interesting how they cook all the food together and then gives you the portions as ordered. I could see a few sceptics on the shrimp, funny faces told it all. It was a couple of really fun hours spent with each other. I really want to see these pics!!!

Red Hat Retail Sale and Tea in Carleton Place.
What a great idea this was, first was the garage sale. You wouldn't believe the bags of stuff we got from other groups. I got my new favourite hat there. Followed by tea and sandwiches, and door prizes. Really enjoyed this event. This lovely little Queen Eileen from the Valley Vixens, is quite the little planner. I thought she did a great job. Stay tuned as in July she is holding a pig-roast at her farm and it's in our plans. Woo-hoo!

Sunday February 19th, Tea at the Chateau
It's been awhile, so it was time to go to High Tea at the Fairmont Chateau Hotel, Zoes Lounge. Zoe was Sir Wilfrid Laurier's beloved wife, and this was her favourite room. We just love the atmosphere, history and elegance the Chateau brings with it's wonderful afternoon teas.
2012 is here, January 27,Baton Rouge & Comedy Show
Well was I impressed by Baton Rouge, my first time. The food was incredible, the steak a must. Of course where ever we go we cause a stir. People stare, smile, ask questions and we really are an eye-opener aren't we. I love it!
Then we went on to reserved front row seats to Chickles, a three-women comedian show. All were very amusing, got to laugh off dinner a bit.

September to December 2011 Events
Ok so I'm a little behind, but say no more - let's catch up on a few of our events. I guess I will work backwards so we are in cronilogical order. I did delay in doing this, mostly because I don't have pictures unfortunately. I need a flutter bug to take pics - any volunteers?
Thursday September 22nd,2011
So back in September we ate lunch at the Cordon Blue Bistro at Signatures. Absolutely elegant, and soooooo good. It was a culinary dream come true of french cuisine. The Table d'hote is lunch at the beautiful Sandy Hill setting and runs Wednesday to Friday. I recommend it definitely.

This annual affair we always attend, and yes I do have a picture but it's copyrighted, so I can't post it here. I'll figure it out. Actually they are all starting to look the same. lol. Anyways I don't think this one needs much explanation. Any big winners?

Women's Day in Manotick
Unfortunately I wasn't at my best for this one and could only enjoy the lunch we had at the Black Dog Restuarant in Manotick. It was really good food served in a wonderful setting. Manotick is so sweet. It was a good turnout.
Annually women of all ages, flock to shops and restaurants to take part in what has become known throughout the city as the ultimate girl's day out. Great shopping, delicious food, health and wellness, workshops, seminars, refreshments, prizes, in-store specials, and a complimentary shopping bag filled with goodies for early birds. I know we love it.
Judy and Phyllis made the Manotick News shopping. Looking good girls.

RRR's Annual Xmas Party
Once again we held our party at Mary's apartment complex party room. It was so wonderful as we relaxed with wonderful company, having sangria, ate pizza & dessert, sang carols, line danced and finally opened our gifts in a crazy gift exchange game. It was all very nice. I think Mary's got pics, so I'll have to get them from her. OK Mary? and on to 2012.........
