Saturday Blogger Meet

After waitng for what seemed forever, Sandy and I were joined for the first time by two of our blogging friends on Saturday. Colleen and I had known each other for about a year, somewhere along the way I introduced her to Sandy. I suggested that she bring someone along, so her friend Leila joined her. They've known each other since university, I just began talking with Leila two weeks ago.

We picked them up from the bus station a little after 2:00 in the afternoon, returned to the house and spent time on the deck enjoying the sun.

Colleen, Sandy (note the hair colour), and Leila

After a while Sandy mentioned she was getting her hair cut the next day and planned to colour it herself. A short conversation followed, those plans were changed and we packed into the car on a trip to our local drug store to pick up some hair colouring. This is what followed...

While this was going on, Colleen was preparing chicken alfredo for dinner...

Did I mention my wife allowed me to have two women that I met on the internet over to the house to cook us dinner? Is she amazing or what??

Leila made a caesar salad...

For dessert we had small vanilla cupcakes, chocolate marble loaf and Sandy's world-famous latte.

We spent the rest of the evening talking in the living room. Colleen was the same as she is on-line, a very easy person to talk to with a great sense of humour. I'm just getting to know Leila but we share many of the same views and are exchanging Psychology books.

We wrapped up at 1am and drove the girls home instead of having them take the bus, went to bed at 2:30. Everyone agreed it was a great time and we need to do it again soon.
