I think of André as Vaca Muerta's very own goodwill ambassador.

@ArchieCoolranch I may have to boycott next year, too, dear. Nikkie de Jager was robbed. Such a nice big girl. I voted for her at least 5 times. #TeamNikkieFTW

[Darlene VanDerPooten @D_VanDerPooten]

@DarleneCampbe12 @Iamjordanschatz @PearlsFromMyrna Oh, that's fine, dear.

Just means more Cristiano-focused-attention for me and the rest of my gals.

@swartzendruper Blanche, dear, those are Unicef Christmas cards.

[Darlene VanDerPooten @D_VanDerPooten]

@LisaMarra @Sean68983941 @PearlsFromMyrna @swartzendruper Oh, yes. Shhhh, dear.

@swartzendruper and I both know how to put the happy in St. Patrick's Day.

[Darlene VanDerPooten @D_VanDerPooten]

Oh? Oh.

[Myrna Tellingheusen @PearlsFromMyrna]

Casseroles and revenge.

[Darlene VanDerPooten @D_VanDerPooten]

@LRGatVME @swartzendruper Delighted, dear.

[Darlene VanDerPooten @D_VanDerPooten]

@LRGatVME @swartzendruper Hello there, Lucinda Goldman; have we met? The Vaca Muerta Mahjong and Bridge club welcomes sharp, probing minds such as yours.

If you like fattening lunches, big cold boxes of Franzia "blush" wine, and minimal game play, please join us!

@swartzendruper As for this being the first time "we've" heard of this? Please wake up and smell the coffee, Blanche, dear. @JoycieCougar is correct.

Exhibit A: tweet of May 2017

Al said he'd "sure like a piece of that Doublemint" at least a dozen times last night.

Silly Al, we only chew Freedent!

A great gal, but please remember: don't leave her alone with your man and don't ever give her money.

@swartzendruper My twin isn't evil, she is just very hormonal, dear.

[Darlene VanDerPooten @D_VanDerPooten]

@swartzendruper @july_jackie @PearlsFromMyrna Oh, dear. A Buick?

@swartzendruper @PearlsFromMyrna Perhaps you have forgotten who had to pay to remove all that red paint from Wilford last March after Quaker oats failed to rid Doris of her hemorrhoids? It was me, sweetie. Me.

Sorry, dear, but Wilford Brimley is being kept in a safe place until I am reimbursed.

[Darlene VanDerPooten @D_VanDerPooten]

@JoycieCougar @swartzendruper @PearlsFromMyrna On the counter for you, Joycie, dear. Sparkling clean. As always.

@LisaMarra @swartzendruper @CJ_Delivers @PearlsFromMyrna @nephewlyle People are always telling me I look younger than 70, too, Lisa.

** hair primp **

[Darlene VanDerPooten @D_VanDerPooten]

@LisaMarra @swartzendruper @CJ_Delivers @PearlsFromMyrna @nephewlyle Yes! All the best to you, dear sweet Lisa M. Marra. Aim high, and soar with the eagles.

PROTIP A solid platform of pickle ball Tuesdays, boxed wine Wednesdays and "kindfulness" every day*, has always worked for me.

[Darlene VanDerPooten @D_VanDerPooten]

@JoycieCougar I'll be there, dear, with my signature salad.

[Darlene VanDerPooten @D_VanDerPooten]

Christmas 1957. Colonel Dirk VanDerPooten's brother, "Doodles" VanDerPooten was always such a help at this time of year.

Such a rascal. He stole the hearts of many a Vaca Muerta retired gal in his day.

@iamchickenhat Why, my beautiful Chicken Hat! Thank you, dear. I have been taking it to the streets lately with my signature canapes and lemonade.

@eeltweets1 @PearlsFromMyrna Oh, my!

I certainly don’t miss the Darlene rallies.
