Welcome to Debbie-Dabble Blog!!
I am so happy you decided to stop by!!
Blogging has always been a stress reliever for me along with an avenue to share my passions which are my home and my garden.....
I
feel it is a personal Journal that, hopefully, someday, my Twin
Granddaughters will be able to look back on to learn about who I
was....
I will be posting 3 times a week on MONDAYS, THURSDAYS and SATURDAYS....
As always, click on each picture if you would like to enlarge it....

I
enjoy reading your comments and will return the favor by visiting and
commenting on your blog or reply to you directly here if you do not have

And now for a few Personal Notes...
My son Joey and I had a wonderful fun filled afternoon at my church, Saint Maria Goretti's Cash Bingo Saturday afternoon!!
It was great seeing so many of my friends and even some I have not seen in a bit ....
My frineds Carol and Betty selling tickets and handing out the Bingo cards....
Friends Carol and Lucille selling tickets for almost 30 raffle baskets....
Joey even got to speak with one of his former junior high teachers....
We sat with a lovely rowdy group of ladies who kept us laughing!!
Joey enjoyed the food, which sold out...
In fact, they had to turn people away as There was No Room at the Inn , so to speak...
Father Alex even got in on the action as a guest caller...
Several years ago, the church bought a state of the Art Digital Bingo system as our hall is also rented out to other organizations who run Bingo's and we also rent out the system which has paid for itself....
All cash prizes, prizes for the basket raffle and the food was donated by parishioners and businesses...
20 games for $100 each, 4 specials for $400, $500, $700 and $1000!!
Since Joe and I met working at a Bingo, I donated a game in his memory...
The 50/50 chances prize was over $600!!
A wonderful job done by my friend Rosemary and all her volunteers!!!
Joey and I did not win any games but I won a raffle basket which included this gift certificate for a local florist and gift shop...
And I will be sharing what else was in the basket at a later date....
Today, I will be sharing how I decorated my Beverage Bar , the top of the refrigerator and the counter bar decorated for Late Summer/Early Fall in the Kitchen with apples and sunflowers...
