With a party organizer on our team like Megan Johnson can you doubt it? Yes, we had High Tea at the Science library – in celebration of Jill Crawley-Low’s birthday. Originally we planned for her actual birthday, sent our almost engraved invites and everything…then Brenda pointed out that though her calendar said she would be at the staff meeting (our cover story), Jill was actually going to be beaching it in Hawaii. Oops.

Plan B. The next staff meeting, when Jill was back. Heather loaned tablecloths, teacups and plates, Beth brought a tea service, Megan and Steven and Brenda and DeDe and Li brought the food. Lexi did the centerpiece. DeDe was to corral Jill in her office while we set up. We should have added the precaution of locking the kitchen door. Bunnies in the headlights. Dead silence. Jill deciding she should be in her office. Close the door.

She was soooo surprised when we asked her in fifteen minutes later. We had a wonderful time. And we are still munching the muchness of the moreish edible delights.
