Boxing Day Dinner

Nothing would keep us from celebrating every event imaginable...

It is the happiness of being in each other company that gets this event going each year.

Great food...great friends... kids keeping themselves occupied. Perfect!

...and with a chef (Jason)  and a kitchen goddess (Joy) in the midst of our group, 

the food was exceptionally superb this year

I will do my best to named the dishes...I was so busy filling up myself with these delicious dishes I forgot to ask the name of some of them... he he!
