Holiday Potluck

Despite the rain, a few of us made it down to Mission Valley last night for the potluck! It was a lot of fun, and had some amazing dishes. Michael made a wonderful salad with a sun-dried tomato and balsamic vinaigrette, Lia made AMAZING Indonesian fried rice, Garry brought homemade confections, and a wonderful goat cheese spread made by Suzanne.

Although being flooded in, we had a blast, especially trying to persuade Michael, Lia, and Robert to play some Christmas music for us :) Hopefully next orchestra potluck we won't be deterred from a little rain! :)
