Arrived a little early with the chalkboard and they were all ready for us.
Kathy once again did a great job.
That old easel and chalkboard are becoming a fixture at our events.
Our cutting boards all set up. Look at those views. There are even cows in the field to complete the pastoral scene.
Sangria and tomato cheese toasts to get us started.
Loved these thistles like we used at the wedding.
The guest of honor arrived.
Chef Matt swung right into action
He explained how to make mozzarella cheese for our salad.
He could chop onions so fast.
Spreading orange liquor over lady fingers for our dessert. It was topped with a creamy sauce and strawberries.
Our menu.
Gorgeous grouper. We all had different tasks.
Sue's daughter Katie got to come. She was not as happy with fish duty.
Kathy seasons the fish before it is seared in a pan and then finished off in the oven.
Sue and her niece.
The salad.
We each made our own.
Ready to enjoy our labors.
It really was excellent. The rice was very special.
Her birthday fruit with candle. I forgot to take a pic of our dessert.
Showered her with cards and gifts first. Then we sang an original composition by Priscilla for her. It was a sweet and funny medley sung to tunes from The Sound of Music. If I find a picture of that, I will post it later.
I bet that was a lot of fun. You girls are so lucky to have each other. MOM
