A celebration luncheon....

Are you looking for ideas for a quick and easy summer meal for your next get-together?

My sister, Rachel, just held a celebration for my mother's 81st birthday. Here is the menu:

Panera Bread Broccoli Cheddar Soup

Chicken Salad on a croissant with leaf lettuce

Potato Chips

Hidden Valley Ranch Dip Mix ( Mix packet with 16 oz. of sour creme)

Cheese cubes ( Colby Jack cheese and Cheddar Cheese) Served with snack crackers

Olives and pickles

Mandarin Orange Pie

 She used a lot of her Fiestaware in Purple and Yellow. In keeping with that theme she purchased yellow gift bags and purple tissue paper to fix up a little gift for each of the ladies. Mom is the one in the middle and those are her two sisters with her.

After lunch, they spent the afternoon visiting on Rachel's front porch and just enjoying the beautiful day. Here are my two aunts, Frances & Dee Dee

This is my sister Rachel with Mom.

Thanks Rachel for sharing your wonderful day with us.
