Day 350: Penelope Party

I love Christmas parties and enjoy each group of friends.  The parties of each group, Penelope, book club and the SS dept., have different atmospheres, menus and entertainment.  My writer's group, Penelope, has been together for 25 years so we have long-held traditions.   Our members are amazing cooks and we always have extraordinary meals of unusual dishes. It was comforting to be together with old friends since I spent most of the day crying again.  All the children killed were 6 and 7 years old.  Heartbreaking.
