Lunch at My Sister’s House

Wednesday, February 13

 

 

I had been looking forward to this day ever since my sister, Nancy, invited me to lunch. It was a nice day, so I decided to walk through the woodlot that separates our houses.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I knew that she was inviting several women from the neighborhood – but I did not know who to expect.

 

 

I love when she makes an ice mold for the candle in the middle of the table.

 

 

There was also a basket of chocolates.

 

 

The ladies across the table from me: Erma, Brenda, Shirley, Karen, and our hostess – my sister, Nancy.

 

 

The other five ladies: Mary Ann, Theda, Dorinda, Becky, and Sadie.

 

 

Someone thought there should be a photo that included me.

 

 

The apple cranberry salad was incredibly delicious.The dressing was fat-free raspberry pecan.

 

 

I didn’t ask Nancy if the soup had a name, but the main ingredients were chicken and rice.

 

 

Homemade cream puffs filled with chicken salad.

 

 

Small ham and cheese muffins.

 

 

The dessert was made with angel food cake, raspberries, blueberries, lemon yogurt, and Cool Whip.

 

 

I thought you might like to see what it looked like inside after we each took our portion.

 

 

Our table favor included a York peppermint patty

 

 

I think most of us were surprised to find a heart-shaped peppermint patty.

It was wonderful afternoon.
