April 2010 Lunch bunch

Hi Girls! I am taking my turn hosting the lunch Bunch for the month of April, and hopefully all of you have received your invitation via our email list. Make sure that if there is someone in the neighborhood whose email isn't on the list, let them know and pass it on. The only thing that I would ask is that you give me a call and let me know what you are bringing so everyone doesn't bring deviled eggs, or potato salad. There are so many fabulous recipes, that I would love to see what we can all come up with. Oh and, I would like to put together a recipe book or maybe even post the recipes on this blog for everyone to enjoy, so follow the directions on the invitation and I hope to see you then.

Please make note of the date, as with General Conference, Easter and Spring break, the date that I chose seems to be the best I could come up with for the month.

Hope to see you then!!! XOXO Katie

January 21, 2010 - Luncheon today at Collette Pearsons

Today's luncheon was hosted by Collette Pearson.  She had her tables set in Springtime colors with cute blue, white, yellow, green and other colored plates. She had pretty spring napkins fan folded and tied with a bow.  Very Cute Collette! 

Those who attended besides Collette were Claudia Wicox,  Patty Larsen,  Katie Gauger,  Kay Tanner, Jil Hunt, Sue Sargent, Linda Sheppard, Mary Ross and Friend, Mary's daughter Jen, Linda Tiffany.  I hope that I didn't miss anyone.  There were several wonderful salads, pasta, Quiche Cups, Chips & dip, Cornbread, Fruit, Brownies and pie. 

Those who came had a fun time, but it would be nice if more neighbors would come and dine with us. 

Next months Lunch Bunch group will be hosted by Annie Burt but will be held on Wednesday instead of Thursday.  Look for the reminder Email and we hope that you will come!  P.S.  Katie Gauger will be hosting in April... any takers for the month of March???

Make sure to keep checking back to see what fun we're having!

If you are searching for a past recipe, scrapbook page, or past lunch bunch gathering and you don't see it on this page, then you probably need to go to the archives section and look in the past year or month. The blog archives are located at the bottom of the Right hand column. Enjoy!

More Lunch Bunch fun!

Sorry this post is so late, but as the old saying goes.... Better late than never. It appears from the smiles on everyones faces, this lunch bunch was a success.
