Thelma claimed she nearly went blind updating the church phone directory but Lolly Purdue got all the credit.
3. What did Lolly want someone in the church ladies league to do for her?

Answer: Thank you notes

5. Before they made their final decision, what item did Lolly want put into the thank you notes?

Answer: Bookmarks

She found some bookmarks she wanted stuffed into the envelopes. Thelma hated the idea and Iola told her they lacked just a precious few to be finished. Lolly thought that prying one part of the envelopes open and sliding the bookmarks in would be easier. Iola then noticed, "Lolly, this is an advertisement for Wellman's Funeral Home."
Lolly: "Well, nobody reads the fine print."
Iola: "Well, of course they do!"
6. What pastry did Thelma and Iola decide to make?

Answer: Scones

Scones called for double sifted flour.

7. During the secret meeting, who apparently couldn't hear very well?

Answer: Inez

Florence kept having to repeat certain phrases to Inez at the top of her lungs. When Lolly showed up unexpectedly, Thelma took Lolly to the kitchen to make the scones. Iola took Florence and Inez outside so she could speak up.
8. Lolly couldn't make the bakery item so she made what instead?

Answer: Cheese and crackers

Thelma left her in the kitchen with all the ingredients measured out and the directions to follow it. When she came back Lolly was making cheese from a can spread out on Ritz type crackers.
9. Who discovered Lolly couldn't read?

Answer: Thelma

Thelma was wondering where the scones were so she lifted up a towel covering a cookie sheet and saw the dough was mixed with at least 2 cups of buttermilk.
Thelma: "Any fool can follow a recipe!"
Lolly: "Not this fool! I can't read."
10. What basketball name did Thelma give herself?
