Yes, it's true!! :D I sent Patrice a PM last night and told her that I would be passing her way today-could we have lunch together? She was so kind and said yes!!!! So about 11:45 I showed up where she works and we went to Applebees for a girl lunch. We talked non-stop, like old friends, and had a wonderful time.

Patrice is everything you imagine her to be--warm, caring, personable, funny and a great lady. She is also TALL (I am 5'8" and she was much taller than me, especially in those heels), blond, and a real doll!!!

Thanks, Patrice, for a great time!!! We HAVE to get together again---soon. :-)

Woo Hoo :P :P

Ah thats great that the two of you were able to finally meet & have a fun time together.

So pleased all those things we thought of Patrice are so true. She sounds like your best friend all rolled into one.

Did you take any pictures of you two together ? If not, don't forget to take your camera on your next visit. :wink:

No, I didn't remember to take any pics of us, but I don't think this will be the last time we see each other. :)

You could have swung by and picked me up on your way! lol

Glad you 2 had a great time.
I'm sure the lunch wasn't long enough for you....I know for me, it wouldn't have been.

Cool. I bet that was fun! Patrice probably needed a nice lunch to recuperate from moderating. :wink:

No Pictures??? That's really cool that you could get together and meet. I got to meet a couple gals at the quilt show in Long Beach last week.

Way to cool! You lucky dog. Lunch with one of the quilting board celebrities. :D That had to be fun. Patrice's sense of humor on the board is great.
