It was a wonderful, cool, crisp, sunny day on Saturday, Feb. 15, when seven members of the British Club celebrated Valentine’s Day at the home of Joan Reichert. Although small in number, the ladies enjoyed their friendly camaraderie, catching up with recent events in their lives. Joan served a delicious Valentine’s buffet with fresh sausage rolls, an assortment of nuts, chocolate cake, coconut macaroons, French macarons, shortbread, lemon slices, heart-shaped cookies, and Dove chocolates. Freshly brewed tea and coffee, of course, complimented the wonderful buffet! Though unable to attend, Barbara Atkins sent ahead fresh lemons, which were really appreciated by all.
Everyone thanked Joan for inviting them into her lovely home in SaddleBrooke to enjoy the special celebrations of the day.
Every second and fourth Friday of the month the British Club has a social event in the bar area at SaddleBrooke Clubhouse which includes the following activities: canasta, Mexican Train, and maybe bridge from 1-4 p.m. This is followed by a social hour and a bar meal.
