I had a wonderful day today with my girlfriends Tami and Michelle. Actually the whole reason we got together was to start sort of a writing group together. We got so much accomplished and because it was at my place, I played hostess and you know how excited I get playing hostess. :)
I made little tea sandwiches....cucumber, dill spread and cheddar cheese, blueberry cream cheese spread and chicken salad.
And a pot of tea, using my new teapot so it's now broken in. :)
Fresh watermelon. I love using these long skewers because it makes it easier to reach when you're not so close to the bowl....
Isn't this perfect for a summery day? And it was almost 80 degrees today!
And last but not least, the personal raspberry pies...topped with a little heart because it was baked with love. I'll post the quick recipe for these pies tomorrow! They are SO EASY.
And the girls were able to to take home a personal pie of their own. :)
Until tomorrow...dream of raspberry pies and yummy sighs...
