My contribution to the potluck was Kale/Broccoli Slaw. I can't find the particular blog that published the recipe I used, but it includes: 2 c baby kale; 2 c chopped broccoli stems; craisins; sunflower seeds; a bit of chopped onion; shredded red cabbage; shredded carrot; salt & pepper. Dressing: 1/2 c mayo, 1/2 c sour cream, 1 T honey, 1 T lemon juice. It was very good! (I bought broccoli and chopped the stems myself because the local supermarket didn't have packaged "broccoli slaw.")

Thursday the United Methodist Women had their holiday luncheon, with a white elephant exchange. That evening I went to Erika's P.E.O. chapter's holiday party -- dessert and a white elephant exchange. That meant two white elephants left the house but two white elephants came back in.
Fortunately, Saturday provided an opportunity to send off a herd of white elephants. It was the AAUW holiday luncheon. We have a silent auction, a 50/50 raffle, and the holiday quilt raffle. I took a box of stuff for the silent auction and brought only a couple of items home. I spent $2.00 for a piece of Christmas fabric (3 yards), $1.00 for a box of Christmas cards, and $1.00 for a book.
Helen makes the centerpieces every year. She is so creative!
"Sing a Song of Christmas" was the children's holiday performance at church today. Each of the 20 kids -- ages 2-1/2 to 15 -- had a part. They all did a great job!
Time to breathe now? Beautiful sunrise, by the way. Hope you have a very merry Christmas!
