A Pub Luncheon with My Sweetie

I love Mondays at the Manse!

Bill tries to maintain Monday as his day off but it doesn't always work that way. Sometimes there's folks in the hospital to visit or dead people to bury. Then there's always ministry to be done, regardless of the time or day and if the ministry work should happen to fall on a Monday, well that's just the way it goes. But when life is quiet and all is going well, my husband's Monday is akin to other folk's Saturday's.

As the crock pot meal, that I wrote about in my last post went to work creating it's slow cookin' magic for tonight's dinner, I turned my attention to what to prepare for lunch.

After a quick scan of the refrigerator, I came up with what Bill would later dub, "A Pub Lunch of Sorts".


 This is so simple! It's simply fresh strawberries, red grapes and blueberries with a rustic chunk of bread, a couple slices of sharp cheddar cheese and a little herb spiked olive oil for dunking the bread. Our beverage was straight from the tap, the water tap that is. :) I suppose if it were a true pub luncheon, it might come with a pitcher of Guiness.


 Don't you just love my luncheon set? I do! It's such a happy little set! The hand painted red cherry and black and white polka dot lunch sets with matching pitcher and glasses came from Kellum's, one of the wonderful quaint antique shops in Havana - "Florida's Friendliest Town!"
