For my birthday, I wanted to do something different. Something special with my family.

And what could be more special than celebrating Christmas in July with a tea designed around Christmas dinner.

So we went to the Spicery in downtown Glendale thanks to a last minute cancellation that could accommodate our party of 7.

There were 3 delicious courses, but sadly we only took pictures of 2.

Of course we missed the savory course with a chicken Waldorf salad, turkey,stuffing and cranberry sandwich, quiche Lorraine, and capreese sandwich.

My dad won best dressed in his Santa tee shirt with my niece close behind with her glittery vest.

A grand celebration.

Until next time.
