Last week we four girls were so happy to be able to spend two days together. We thoroughly enjoyed every minute! For supper, we had fun decorating the table and making a special meal. We would like to share it with you!

Mango Cranberry Punch
Basil Chicken and Pasta
Strawberry Poppy Seed Salad
Turtle Cheesecake







Some of the recipes I used were from Pinterest, so I will link them below. I got the chicken recipe from a favorite cookbook of mine, and the punch is my own creation!
Mango Cranberry Punch
1- 2 liter of sprite
1- 1/2 gallon of white grape juice
1- 1/2 gallon of cranberry mango juice
1- lemonade concentrate
Mix everything together, add the sprite right before serving.
Basil Chicken and Pasta
2 boneless chicken breasts
salt and pepper to taste
2 T. butter
1.5 T finely chopped fresh basil
Sauce:
2 T. butter
1/2 c. heavy whipping cream
1 T. fresh basil
salt and pepper to taste
3 t. flour
Angel hair pasta
Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper and place in an 8″x8″ glass baking dish. Combine butter and basil, spread on top of the chicken. Bake for 20-30 minutes at 400, flipping it when it’s half done.
Sauce: Melt the butter. Add cream and basil. Add flour and cook until thickened. Spoon over chicken. Serve over hot pasta.

Lovely dinner! There’s alot to be said for taking the time to slow down and cook beautiful, delicious food… and then to share together as friends. This go-go world needs more of that!
