Post Party

Well, another successful Christmas party is officially in the books. We had a houseful of people, a lot of good food, and a lot of fun times that included lots of conversations between old friends and new, lots of laughter and of course, the star of the evening, the ORNAMENT EXCHANGE. 🙂 As always, there were a lot of fun, creative ornaments that came to the party, with a lot of good-hearted “stealing” as well. In the end, I think everyone enjoyed the ornaments they took home with them. 🙂

I made my cranberry chutney cake, Cranberry Chutney Cake along with some mini quiches, both vegetarian and with bacon, some little roast beef rounds with Port Salut cheese, and some little smoky sausages in a tomato-wine sauce. I also provided other nibblies, goodies, and sweets and treats.

Pre-party setting up. Just waiting for the guests to arrive.

And arrive they did too. We think we had about 50 or so people in attendance, all having a great time. Everyone who came were friends and family. Some were friends of friends. Some were work friends. Some were hockey friends. Some were neighbors, some were swim friends. And some were friends who are actually family.

We were so busy “hosting” that we forgot to get any pictures of Larry and I. But I will give you the photo we sent out to everyone with our Christmas cards. It was taken in Canada, on our epic journey through the Canadian Rockies.

Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and Happy Holidays everyone. Stay safe and stay well. ‘Til next time.
