Thanksgiving Revisited

Who says you can only be thankful one day of the year, right? Well, that's why I purposefully (ahem) saved the Catty Thanksgiving post until a later date. I am feeling pretty thankful today, so I figured now is as good a time as any to write this post.

The "tablescape" complete with homemade place mats that I received for my birthday from the Catty girls.

Hor'dourves (however the heck you spell that) and desserts

Sides!

Happy Thankful Day from the Catty Girls and their men and children!

Get Cho Cookie On!

 Cookie Bake 2010 was a quiet affair this year, but a winner nonetheless. We ended up with a low cookie count, but all the dough was baked which doesn't always happen.

As usual we had one attendee who was sick...A petite attendee to try all the goods...and the rest of us baked and drank until we were Mary, I mean merry.

 Also this year we opted for a random gift exchange with $15 limit instead of buying for everyone. It was a hit and somehow we all chose the number of the most appropriate gift for ourselves. Weird.

 Sadly, there are no pics of our sick friend or our honorary Cattee (love you Megan). We were also short one member this year, but I can't wait to see her back when life gets on track. I also heard the Pfuhn's are getting down on New Year's and TCK was invited. Should be a hoot. And on that note we look forward to seeing you in 2011. Faith will be a farmer, Jenn is trying a new schedule, I turn 30, Jenna will earn her Master's degree and Mel will be a mommy. It's a big year.

XOXO,

The Catty Kitchen

Merry Merry

Happy Holiday's from the Catty Kitchen!
May your gloves warm your fingers and your hot cocoa warm your heart.

PS - We deeply apologize for not sharing stories and pictures of our Catty Kitchen Thanksgiving. It seems as though, Melissa failed to do her part and post a blogy blog entry. We will reprimand her and make sure something it posted as soon as possible.

To make up for the lack of a Thanksgiving post, here are a few more pics from our Catty Kitchen Retreat
