November Social 2006


Today June invited us all into her beautiful home in St. Philip's for a morning of socializing and enjoying the presentation that Don Moores from Home on Water Street had prepared for us on the topic of hostess gifts during Christmas time.



Don brought along a whole array of wonderful stuff that they sell at his store. Soaps, candles, preserves an so on. Unfortunately I could not remember all the names, but I remembered one brand, because Don mentioned it was Prince Charles' company.


The line is called Duchy Originals and all profits generated from the sales go to the The Prince of Wales’s Charitable Foundation.





There also were two door prizes. One lucky winner was Randi.





Don was presented with a token of our appreciation: a bottle of wine and our very own compilation of recipes in the "Friends in the Kitchen" cookbook. (There still are some available through June. They also make great gifts to send.)



We also had some beautiful little baby visitors, whom we all so enjoy, but while Mathew and William are already too quick for me to capture with my camera, Asuka's adorable little girl could not run from me yet. She is five months old.


Thank you, June, for hosting this event, decorating your home for the theme, turning the music on softly and making everyone feel welcome.
