On the afternoon of December 18th 2009 our church ladies from Coram Deo Fellowship experienced the first annual ladies Christmas tea and cookie exchange. Marilyn McCoy graciously hosted this fun event. After the cookies were distributed on the cookie counter, we sat around the beautiful decorated table as Marilyn shared about proper tea etiquette. Then we enjoyed a freshly steeped pot of green tea as we delighted in sampling festive goodies Marilyn had made in addition to the Christmas cookies we all had brought. The festive goodies included Lemon Curd, two different types of Scones, Zucchini rolls, Pecan Tassies, and Shortbread. Another tasty hors d'œuvre was the chicken salad tea sandwiches made by my mother. We also enjoyed sharing Christmas memories, favorite Christmas recipes and heartwarming fellowship. The memories of the flavorful treats and sweet conversation will have will have to linger long until we meet again for the same celebration next year.
