Last night we had our Thursday night Bible study over for a Christmas 'potluck' if you could call it that with all the gourmet cooks in our group!
The six couples enjoyed an appetizer of cream cheese covered with a raspberry chipotle sauce and then after re-heating and prep work, all twelve of us went into the dining room for a dinner of spinach salad with warm bacon dressing, pot roast that just fell apart roasted with carrots and onions, pork loin, steamed vegetables, twice-stuffed potatoes and rolls. Some enjoyed a glass of fume blanc while a few others had a combo cabernet-merlot.
After clearing the table, we went into the living room which Carolyn had finished decorating with our Christmas candles and nativity scenes to sit down and have our white elephant exchange. Otherwise known as the "pass the junk" exchange. Some of the highlights included an absurdly decorated piggy bank, an angel with broken head, and a large smiley face yellow cup. We finished up with a decadent chocolate cake and coffee.
We had a great time and we enjoyed it all, but I am glad we have a two-drawer dishwasher because we had a LOT of dishes.
