Dinner with Friends

I cooked dinner for a few of our friends tonight.........friends that we had not had a chance to see during Christmas. It was a typical southern New Year's meal.......ham, hoppin' john, collard greens, roasted sweet potatoes with rosemary, cornbread and an apple tart and plenty of sweet tea.

It was the perfect way to start a new year.......plenty of good food, friends and lots of laughter!

There is nothing better than hearing the room fill with laughter and good conversation, the stress of the holidays behind us, and hope for an abundant New Year.........an abundance of good health,

happiness, and peace.

I am tired, still not 100 percent, but the hugs and love that friends brought into our home tonight was good for my spirit. Besides music and yoga, one of my other loves.......cooking. Give me a home filled with friends, and a kitchen full of food, I'm in heaven!

So forgive me, but I am very very tired.........my bed and pillow are calling my name.

Good night, Sweet dreams.
