Company Desserts

We had company the last week of August

LOTS

of company!

And each company meal called for a company dessert!

Tuesday

Lemon Chess Pie

(Because our guest of honor loves anything lemon!)

 Wednesday

Peach Cobbler with Vanilla Ice Cream

(Because it's summer, the peaches are ripe and everyone loves peach cobbler!   Served in individual gratin dishes -- each guest had their own!)

Thursday

A Petit Four

(From Andre's Kansas City -- where I lunched with a friend before a needlepoint class)

Friday

Peach Cobbler

(There is no such thing as too much of a good thing!    Served differently -- made one big cobbler and served it in bowls -- topped with that melting vanilla ice cream)

The following Wednesday

Tomato Spice Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting

(A dinner for some dear friends who were visiting from out of town)

Thursday Lunch

Tomato Spice Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting

(Yes, the same cake -- bake once serve twice!   Just as good the next day -- perhaps even better because spice cakes tend to develop more flavor when they sit!)

It's been a fun and busy week.

The good news is that the house was kept clean

Since "company" was always coming over!

But my idea of a perfect day is to clean house in the morning, cook in the afternoon and have company for dinner!

So you might say I had the perfect week!
