NYR 4-3-11 - cock-a-leekie soup!

Jimmy needed to work today to catch up on all those days he missed because of our extended vacation to SC and party preparation on Friday, so Mac and I accepted an invitation to lunch with a Scottish friend and her family. I met Lisa when we first got here, but I don't see her nearly often enough to suit me.

We had such a great time - Mac played Wii with their girls and I enjoyed really funny and interesting adult company with Lisa and her husband. And we all ate the most delicious Cock-a-Leekie Soup. Don't know what Cock-a-Leekie Soup is? Well it's a traditional Scottish soup of chicken (the cockerel part), leeks (the leekie part), and rice. Totally yummy!

For a great Sunday lunch with friends, I am truly thankful.
