All were enjoying the hor d'oeuvres, drink and chatting.

The Artichoke Dip brought by the Nelsons got rave reviews. Here is the recipe:
Dan's Artichoke Dip
1 cup light mayo
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
2 cups mozzarella cheese
2 cans artichoke hearts (quartered)
Garlic to taste

Mix all ingredients together and bake at 350 for 25 minutes.

The Kears and Lenneys

The Kears

We had a special event.
It was Nancy and Bill's 50th Wedding Anniversary.

The Carving

While everyone else was having fun our Chef/Host and our Club President are hard at work.

The Food was Great as always.

Gene's Southern Pork Barbecue was outstanding. We ate it in sandwich buns with cold slaw and sauce. The photographers were so busy enjoying it that there are no photos.
