Welcoming family

Today we'll welcome family members that we haven't seen for quite a while. It will be joyful to see them--a chance to share a meal and catch up with one another's lives--we may even make time to see an old movie or two of days of endless play when we were young if time and interest permit.

We'll celebrate with a brunch that includes a fruit salad, green salad, quiches, spinach pie, ham, muffins, deviled eggs, and more. They'll be coffee and an assortment of other drinks as well.

There's some cooking to do and a few gifts to wrap before the guests arrive. This event marks the start of the family holiday celebrations.
