Catering Service

It was my pleasure to help my mom out this week.  It has been an emotionally draining week for our family, but especially Mom.
My sweet Grandma had a stroke on Tuesday & it has left her in a pretty sad state.
So when my mom remembered she was supposed to have Book Club at her house on Thursday, she was feeling a little overwhelmed.  Good thing she has a good helper living with her.  : )
I had a great day!  I did all the things I love best:
*Cooking
*Cleaning
*Baking
*Serving
I put together a Spinich Salad with Raspberry Poppyseed Dressing.
For dinner I made Chicken Tortilla Soup {this recipe has fast become a family favorite...it is sooo good - thanks a million to my Mother-in-Law who introduced it to me}.
A special request was made by my mom for dessert.  She wanted my homemade Coconut Cupcakes with a {healthy} dollop of Whipped Cream.
Mom actually put the table together.  I could not have done this...
Then to top off the day, I got to go to a bridal shower with a friend I have not seen since before Texas.
Miss Marianne
It was a GOOD day. 
Now, if only I could get Grandma to feeling better...

I'm glad to hear she's doing a little better and hopefully she will get stronger each day. She has such a loveing family around her!
