Cooking for Seven

Using random.org, I have selected the winner:

Hannah and Esther: We like COFFEE! But we also like tea. I love the Rooibos tea with a little milk. Yummy!

Congratulations, Hannah and Esther!

.

Just for fun, I tallied up how many people like to drink what. Here are the results:

#1 Tea (52%)

#2 Coffee or Undecided (both 16%)

#3 Cocoa (10%)

#4 Cider (6%)

Thank you to all who entered my giveaway! Merry Christmas!

For lunch our hostesses served Roasted Carrot Soup, garnished with scallops, bacon and sour cream.

The U. family brought Cucumber sandwiches. We provided Spiral sandwiches and Turkey Cranberry sandwiches.

The K. family made Five Ingredient Salad. This is my favorite fruit salad recipe - I’ll have to give you the recipe some time…

Our hostesses also served Chicken Beggar’s Purses - chicken filling inside a won ton wrapper, fried in a thin layer of oil.

After chatting and allowing the food from lunch to “settle”, we had tea.

Along with our tea we had four desserts: (clockwise from top left) Chocolate Trifle, Date Triangles, Sandies and Pumpkin Kolaches.

Thank-you to the S. family for hosting such a delightful tea party.
