Bridal Luncheon

Eva had a Bridal Luncheon for Norie when she and Brad got married.
When I was typing in the memorial day menu a few days ago I thought it
would be nice to include several other typical menus and this one
came to mind.
Eva served her chicken salad with her mother's Challah bread, with macaroons
and strawberries dipped in chocolate for dessert. Recipes for Challah bread, Chicken salad and Macaroons are in the blog.

Memorial Day

Just came back from Aunt Jeanne's for Memorial Day gathering.
Enjoyed seeing everyone as usual.
Memorial Day Menu consisted of
Hamburgers, Hot dogs and Brats on the grill
Calico Beans
Croatian Potato Salad
Deviled Eggs
salad
slaw
and as always black olives and pickles
Bairds provided dessert of cakes and homemade ice cream gathering.

Easter

We never ate Easter Brunch at home when we were growing up.
Our Grandma Foster (Nana) always took us out to eat.
For years we ate at the Town House Hotel, I think until they had a fire(?)
After that we moved around, probably until there got to be too many of us and we
moved to homes.( I remember being at Victory Hills Sheila's first Easter.)
Loretta and Jeanne took turns having it for years, now Nancy, Anne and Barb
usually take turns hosting.
