And I pulled it off!
Y'all remember last month when we were trying to come up with a cute menu for my church dinner? That's the dinner that was Wednesday.
The menu was:
Uncle Julius' Caesar Salad
Blue Ridge Herb Roasted Chicken
Cousin Fran's Southern Green Beans
Granny's Rocky Branch Taters
Little River Sweet Treats
The them was "How to Tawlk & Rite Tennessee" and lots of folks came dressed in Hillbilly clothes, we even had a Minnie Pearl. The guest speaker was hilarious, he's a local columnist for the newspaper. He had flash cards printed up with different words that Tennesseans use.....for instance "barium". Well, that what we do with the deceased, we barium. He spoke for almost an hour and everyone was laughing so hard we were in tears. The decorations were so adorable, I might have a picture that I can post a bit later of the stage. Moonshine jugs, old Tennessee artifacts, some red long johns. It really was too cute.
Yesterday running around town I ran into several folks that were there and had several more phone calls just telling me what a great time they had, that this was the best event they had ever attended at our church, how good the food was.
Our committee is thrilled and already talking about a theme for next year!
Thanks for all y'all's help with the menu!
