Guest Blogger-Sister #3: GLEE does Hallowe’en

November1

“My dinner club is lovingly referred to as Glee (Girls Laughing, Eating and Entertaining).

Our usual M.O. is to theme a dinner around a movie but on occasions like Halloween we have a built in theme so instead we spend our evening visiting.  Being this was the first dinner event of the 2012/13 season, we had a bit of catching up to do.

Our spooky culinary adventure started the Kathy’s appetizer plate of crunchy-cheesy witch fingers, pumpkin shaped cheese ball and vegetable crudités.

Our hostess, Barb, set a beautiful table and we enjoyed a mixed green salad featuring orange peppers, dried cranberries and pumpkins seeds.

Our main was a rice pilaf, couscous and pickerel cheeks, all delicious.

We finished off the evening with Lucille’s pumpkin loaf topped with her homemade spider chocolates.”

Kath’s quote: “My therapist told me the way to achieve true inner peace is to finish what I start. So far today, I have finished two bags of M&Ms and a chocolate cake. I feel better already.”-Dave Barry

Love-that is all.
