Gathering and Social
February Social and Clan Gathering
Saturday night we saw many new faces and many familiar ones as well. Plenty of food that all could enjoy. It wasn't all Scottish. Foods were a wonderful Mexican nacho dip, a pepper steak dish, cookies, and haggis. The restaurant Macedonia here in the mall, brought down a mixed salad plate for the crowd to enjoy. Conversations were lively and it is always fun meeting new people and introducing them to the culture. Hope to see you all at the next gathering.
