AlphaPhiBubbles, you are right--it is the coolest when you have that realization that a woman you know is also a sister! I had the same thing happen to me about six or seven years ago. I was introduced to a woman who had been a friend of my fiance's family for years. He didn't know she is an Alpha Phi, and neither did I at the time, but we were outside at her house and I saw she had a really sad looking planter full of ivy that wasn't doing so well. So I made an offhand remark about how if she wanted to bring that ivy back to life I'd show her how because we had it all over the place in college. Her jaw dropped and she screamed "Oh my god, you're an ALPHA PHI, aren't you??!!!" She grabbed me by the arm, drug me inside and sure enough buried in with about a million pictures on her fridge is and oldie but goodie Alpha Phi magnet that I had never noticed before! Ever since then she calls me her sister all the time--and there's a good age gap between us which makes it all the more fun!
