Religion, geneology, and food

I overheard four ladies discussion in crisp highly audible voices about their work in the Church. They talked about what each of their contributions are, the roles they play, and the groups they are part of.

Then they began to discuss about priests, where they are assigned, where these priests were once assigned and who among those they know are members of families they are familiar with.

Genealogy is the next part of the discussions. They talked about who they know, who his/her parents were, and where they lived. Then came several "historical" accounts about the relatives of the people they know. This also includes the nicknames some of these people bear.

And they finally wandered to the topic about food. Food they cook, food they ate, and food served to them. They even talked about how best to cook certain meals and exchanged recipes on a few.
