ANOTHER HALL FUNCTION SUCCESS


Another successful function held at the Wharncliffe Community Hall - we made more money at this function, working only 1 full day (not counting a day of shopping and a couple of hours clean-up) than we did at the last Chicken and Fish fry which consisted of working 4 1/2 days.
It was a 50th Wedding Anniversary Party for a couple who summer on a lake up here.  39 people plus 6 kids - we made chicken cordon bleu, mashed potatoes, corn, carrots, Caesar salad and buns.  Everybody loved the chicken which was easy to make.
In the first picture you can see Phyllis and Vickie in my home away from home.  I brought some white wine from home for the sauce and Vickie is finishing it.
The next picture shows the wedding cake Phyllis made.  The "bride" saved her wedding cake topper from 50 years ago and Phyllis just added a few tweaks like painting the bride and groom's hair grey.  She did an amazing job.
The next photo is of the crowd just arriving.
The next is of my bar area.  Not a lot of drinkers in the group - I (or the Hall) made $3 in tips!!
The final picture is of the feast.
Now we are getting ready for the Pig Roast this weekend.  We baked pies all day long today - tomorrow I get a day off to go golfing!!!, shopping all day Thursday for the food and then all day long Friday, Saturday and Sunday and 1/2 of cleanup on Monday.

Tuesday I rest...
