Christmas Day

Chistmas dinner this year was celebrated with friends. Carol Ann, Brett, and Josh joined us for a nice dinner with wonderful food. We are thankful for those in our lives.
CA made some YUMMY celery root puree

We roasted up a turkey breast and some salad. Carol Ann also made a delicious olive and tomato starter for us.

Christmas Eve

Jay and Denise hosted another great Garcia Family Christmas Eve. We were so happy that Suzanne and Othon made it from Prescott. We love you guys.

After a long drive and some good Tequilla, Othon was ready for a nap.

and here comes the food. Starter, Appetizer, dinner Tri Tip with a Thyme, garlic, Lemon sauce, with stuffed acorn squash prepared by Martin and Nicole and last but not least, Erin's killer chocolate mousse cake. Yum.

Another fine meal with friends. A toast to the end of 2009. Looking forward to more foodie fun in 2010.

Supper Club Southern Style

October 2009 brought us another fine meal hosted by Carol Ann and Brett soon to be the Soltz (es)

Southern was the food to be this round and let me say, if you're having Southern, you want Southern folk cooking it for you. Paula Deene has nothing on CA!
