Maltese Canadian Association of Hamilton Annual Dinner/Dance
Took place on Friday, September 21. Invited my good friends Trish, Paulo & Jeannine to come along. The event was held at Michelangelo’s, a lovely banquet facility I must say!
As with most Maltese functions, things ran very late. Earlier pamphlets had said that dinner would start at 7 PM Sharp! Well, the first course made it’s appearance somewhere around 7:45 PM. By the time we were ready for dessert, it was pushing 9 PM. Still, very enjoyable. Fantastic meal with some pasta, roast beef with all the fixings, salad, a seafood platter and a lovely dessert (strawberry mousse).
The DJ (Stephen, son of Godwin-one of my poker buddies) started up the music and the dancing began. Along with the four of us, Brother Joseph & his lady Kathryn, Sister Dianne & Jim and a coworker of Jim’s-Art and his lovely wife Debbie were at our table. A lot of dancing except from Trish-she didn’t go up for one dance!
The dessert/pastitzzi tray made an appearance around 11 PM. I was still full from dinner but I forced one more pastitzzi into me. Plus, a couple of dainty little desserts I couldn’t resist. Then, home to bed!
A great evening with some great people!
