The Hostest with the Mostest!

I haven't been around much this weekend as we have been visiting with family who are all in town for a wedding tomorrow. And during all of this visiting, Hilary has stepped up as usual with her Hostest with the Mostest abilities!


Case in point 1:

Thursday night her parents flew in to Halifax and landed at 11:12 PM. After collecting their luggage and rental car, it was well past midnight when the arrived at our house. Hilary knew that their tummies would still be on BC time so she had a light meal prepared for them. Rarebit and salad.


Case in point 2:


Her uncle called yesterday. He and his wife are staying in Halifax before the wedding and called on Saturday to see if they could come by to visit us Sunday morning. So Hilary threw together this brunch:






She made potatoes with horseradish and salad shrimp while drinking her first cup of morning coffee!


The Profiteroles she did buy pre-made, but she still has a knack at platting things so that they look awesome!
So Happy Thanksgiving to all my Canadian friends, and I hope everyone has had a wonderful weekend. I'll be back after the wedding with pictures of Liam in his first tie and tie-pin!!

Okay, that shrimp situation looks beautiful and delicious and I want to make (and subsquently eat) it!

Is there a secret recipe? ;)
