I was absolutely delighted to host Christmas dinner in my home for 14 guests. I wanted to make the menu very special.
 |
| Meet L'Orange |
 |
| My tree was loaded with gifts for all the guests. |
 |
| L'orange became Duck A L'Orange... so nice |
 |
| I carved him before the guests arrived so he would be easy picking amongst the 2 hens, pork, irish, rice, greens, and more. |
 |
| Guests began arriving at 2 pm... my neighbour even wore an ephod |
 |
| A sit down dinner... rare to eat at a table all together. |
I asked one of my guests what he wanted to eat on Christmas Day and he said he wanted to eat something new. I told him we were going to have duck... he was glad because that was new. Then I mentioned Jello... he didn't know what that was. How do you describe Jello if you have never even seen something with gelatine in it? I mentioned that it was like juice you could eat with a fork. Some were glad to try and some feared because that is just wrong. :) |
| Musical entertainment... the keyboard or Ipod was playing for a long time |
 |
| Gift giving time! |
 |
| Opio followed my lead in entertaining the crowds... |
 |
| Rose receives a photo of her precious children |
 |
| Jordan helped me to clean the rice |
 |
| My boys received their new shirts... a plan that took 2 months to unfold. |
