Holiday Fun {Friends and Food}

 

Last evening in lieu of our “regular” supper club, J & I invited our friends over to the house before walking to La Thai for dinner.

We served a few appetizers and a special holiday cocktail which I dub Christmas Cheer, a mixture of cranberry juice, champagne, and ginger ale. I then garnish with dried cranberries just for the spirited look.

We all walked a few blocks to our favorite Thai restaurant, La Thai where we dined on delicious food, yummy cocktails, and shared delightful conversation.

We walked home afterwards and shared more “parlor patter”.

It is always a great time when our friends get together. J & I love to host such “good people”.

I love this holiday decoration on the side wall of this home along our walk. Cheers!

  3. What a fantastic idea! I love the idea of hosting drinks and apps then heading OUT for dinner. We could easily do that here as well since we have several wonderful restaurants within a mile or so.
