Another Christmas Luncheon


What a week - a Christmas luncheon at the beginning and another one at the end! Yesterday afternoon I had lunch with the two ladies that I used to work for at our local Girl Scout Council before the boys were born. It's become an annual tradition for us to gather at Christmastime and have lunch, exchange gifts and catch up on one another's lives. It's something I always look forward to and yesterday was no exception. We gathered at one of my friend's homes and enjoyed the lunch she prepared for us. It was fun catching up and continuing our Christmas tradition.

Our Christmas luncheon menu included:

* Homemade Chicken Barley Soup
* Fruit & Nut Salad (a salad containing fresh greens and pear slices, grape halves, dried cranberries and cherries, cheddar cheese, toasted & brown-sugared pecans and a smattering of Italian dressing - unusual but delicious!)
* Corn Muffins
* Clodhoppers (a Canadian cookie that resembles bits of graham crackers and Rice Krispies coated in chocolate - addicting!)
