Girlfriends Holiday Luncheon

I am so blessed to have such amazing girlfriends. Yesterday was the annual Girlfriends Holiday Luncheon. We always have it the first Saturday in December. It is a time to gather together and celebrate being women and being girlfriends. It is the one holiday event I look most forward to and so do many of those who attend. Sorry Karen, Amy, Nikki, Cathy, Lori and Cristen couldn't make it this year. Welcome Cathleen and Megan who enjoyed their first luncheon. We held it at The Mangrove Grill in Palmetto and oh my god the food was out of this world. We feasted on Shrimp Spring rolls with the most incredible dipping sauces, lobster and crab cakes, mussells, salads that were unbelievable and desserts too decadant to name. Ok, Smore Brownies with carmel and chocolate sauce, Key lime pie, and something that was so chocolatey I didn't even taste it.

Andrea gave everyone a new box of baking soda for a fresh new start for 2007. Lots of meaning behind that little box. In this past year Jeci, Mindy and I all lost a parent. We were happy to see 2006 come to an end. We all have lots to feel blessed about and we wish health and happiness for our families, our children, our spouses and our friends. Love you all
