I had a birthday luncheon today for Judy, a friend and a lady I visit teach, and her daughter., Leila. It was an Irish menu..all except dessert. I made corned beef and cabbage with potatoes, onions, and carrots , pistachio salad, Irish soda bread with cinnamon sugar, green beans with bacon and spices and a fun fruit drink. We had Costco chocolate cake for dessert with vanilla ice cream. Everyone seemed to really enjoy it ( at least they said they did) and I did too. I usually only make corned beef and cabbage in March...but I should make it more often. I made a ton so they requested a doggie bag and Greg and I will be eating it a few times this week.
Denton and family were invited elsewhere today...which may have been good for the kids. Most kids don't like corned beef. I was an adult when I learned to appreciate it. I love it now.
We sang Happy Birthday and opened presents and finished just in time for a nap. Stake conference was only 1 1/2 hours ( satellite broadcast) which was awesome.
It was a fun day and now I am eating left overs for my evening snack.
