I really have enjoyed blog hopping during this holiday season. Another thing I love is getting to host and attend get togethers, during the holiday! Today I had two long time girlfriends over for lunch.
I also wanted you to see my new movable kitchen island. I am keeping all the coffee, tea wine and cutting boards on this side, along with some utensils.
This side is where the spice rack are.
The dining room is ready for our luncheon. Spring mix salad with raspberries, pecans, apples and gruyere cheese, warm artichoke dip with bagel rounds, coleslaw, port wine cheese and crackers, fresh orange slices, wine and chocolate cake and coffee for dessert.

Here we are. Susie(in front) and I were majorettes together in high school and Susan to my left was a cheerleader. We still love being together, after all these years :)

What a charming home you have. Your basket on the counter caught my eye; I'm a bit of a Longaberger collector. Glad I dropped by for Rednesday.
Your home is charming, so welcoming and warm. And how wonderful to still have friends from school, there is nothing more wonderful than having a shared history and friendships of the heart.
Happy New Year!
It's wonderful that you spend time with your friends. My husband is still friends with guys with whom he went to gradeschool! Wishing you warmth, good cheer and many, many blessings in the new year.
You kitchen is so pretty!! I love it. Very inviting. I know you must have had a great day together!! Happy VTT!
I am so in love with your kitchen, I want to run into mine and make it more cozy and adorable, just like yours!!! Thanks for sharing that beauty, I tried to pin the pix to Pinterest but couldn't make it work. So, I'll link to you in your blog reader and we can be friends :) Happy New Year ~ Mary
Is this your first post, I am dying to read more :)
I was a majorette too. Still have my batons and uniforms. Girl time is the best.
The pictures of you home are so beautiful. The lunch sounds wonderful, and so is the menu. True friendships are really rare. Thanks for sharing your inspiration at Sunday's Best!
