The Quizzing Luncheon

The Quizzing Luncheon was great. Julie and Christine weren’t there, so it was just the guys (including Bruce). Aubrey met us there, so the six of us all sat comfortably in the van. I think that was the first time. On the way up, they all talked about Star Wars Episode 3. I still need to see it, so they ruined the whole plot. Brandon was trying to be nice and drop the subject so it wouldn’t ruin it for me, but that is all Josh seemed to talk about. Then we got talking about yellow Amish buggies and the bling-bling Amish.

When we got there, we had to wait a bit to meet with Aubrey. Michael tried his "Aubrey call" a few times. He got 5-10 minutes after we did. Then we went in. It took a while for the cashier to scan all the gift cards. The Deitricks got about 8 separate receipts. Then "the hounds" were let loose in the buffet. I got potatoes done every way know to man, plus a lot of chicken. Aubrey took two drinks. Michael took a lot of bread. For desert, I had coconut cream pie, Aubrey had about 3 bowls of pudding, Michael had 3 bowls of chocolate ice cream with every chocolate topping known to man on it (he was aiming for 5), Dave had one bowl of vanilla ice cream, which quickly melted in the hot dish and Josh had a lot of coffee. Well, of course, to be Spring City we have to do some kind of wild, crazy and weird act. So Aubrey and Michael decided each of them was going to chug half a bottle of Tabasco sauce. Each one’s face turned to red. You could see the pain run through them. Aubrey kept complaining his lips hurt from the burning, so he put his lips in Dave’s ice cream. Michael kept eating bread to cool his mouth. Bruce tried to play a joke by putting Tabasco in Mike’s roll, but he quickly caught on. It was funny just watching the facial expressions. Then both of them had to go to the bathroom. Now, if you know anything about Tabasco sauce, it burns when it leaves the body. So Michael and Aubrey were in the bathroom for a while. They were impressed about the toilet seat covers. Typical. The waitress wasn’t exactly too happy about cleaning up after us, so the Deitricks left a hefty tip. Then we left. We brought Josh home. Then I went back to the Deitricks where my parents picked me up. Brandon, Bruce, Aubrey and Michael went back to the Tedors to play Mario Party 5. Michael was suppose to play baseball, but he got sick from the Tabasco sauce. That’s pretty much what went down.
