Christmas Dinner Party with the Reid's and Family

December 12, 2015

A busy December month always brings a few festive parties and they always make for a fabulous setting for some delicious food to help celebrate with family and friends. My first Christmas Party of the season was in late November for some of my regular diners and good friends of mine. I served up some decadent themed canapes to start and then followed with three courses for everyone, covering four generations of one big happy family! :) There was plenty of wine, beer and drink to accompany the food and so everyone was in a fabulous mood to celebrate, making an other excellent party with "The Reid's" :)
