Good morning,
These images are from last Sunday morning's brunch. Aunt Carol, Catherine's friend Bill, Son Don and his wife and six children were all here.
There were so many hot dishes on the table that we couldn't pass so we all moved around the table filling plates for the kids, each other, and ourselves.
We had a total of thirteen people so the younger set had their own private table. ;)
I snapped these pictures as people were serving and digging in. Wow, this was a great meal. Catherine made most of it with the exception of the potato casserole in the center made by Aunt Carol...
...and the braided bread made by me. The recipe and instructions for my bread are here in two parts:
Part 1 and
Part 2.
Catherine also made Norwegian Waffles with cherries topping, bacon, ham...
...french toast casserole with peaches, and so much more. My goodness that was good!
Thank you, Catherine!
Aren't family meals wonderful!
Enjoy,
Lois
Lunchtime here, so these pictures have an impact even greater! I still remember gladly my turns at the youngers' table, a long time ago.

ReplyDeleteIt's 12 noon, I haven't eaten lunch yet and your photos have made me suddenly feel very hungry, Lois! Lovely family gathering!
ReplyDeleteI love the kids around the card table. Reminds me of my childhood.
ReplyDeleteA day in, I've done that too many times, that's England.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful meal.
ReplyDeleteFood always tastes better when it's eaten around the family table. :)
ReplyDeleteYou are so right, Lois. Getting all the family together to share a meal is such a wholesome, quality activity that binds its members together and provides lovely memories.
ReplyDeleteYour wonderful photos of what looks like a delicious selection of food and very happy people are evidence of this.
What a nice gathering. I'm not even hungry now and it all looks so good!
ReplyDeleteI cannot agree with you more. I love having a feast with my family and will not let go any opportunity if I can. The food looks great and it is so heart-warming to see your family gathering. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteI did NOT need to see this post...I have held off eating today cause I am in the process of mowing our little yard...knew I did not need to eat and then get this hot. But, oh, this all looks so yummy.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a delightful day with your family!
ReplyDeleteLois, your daughter, Catherine, is indeed multi-talented and that meal looked wonderful.
