THE CITIZEN, THURSDAY, APRIL 6, 2006. Family celebrates occasion with dinner Continued from page 23 Mary McCall. Family gathered at Wong's restaurant to celebrate the 85-year-young Mary. Son Jack with Doreen and Jared, son Murray with Sherry, Carali, Marci, Shawna with Doug, Jadon and Colton, sisters-in- law Isabel, with husband Frank Barke and Lois McCall, nieces Mary and Joyce Ireland and Marion Hunt were all in attendance to enjoy a wonderful time together. A special gift for Mary was a picture of Mary and her brother Jim with their parents, taken many years ago. This was given to her by the Ireland girls. Making it extra special was also the attendance of Marci and Carali, flying in from England. Carali is on a month's break from school, so will be able to visit Grandma a few more times before returning in a couple of weeks. Marci and Carali enjoyed the Cruise the World show as well on Saturday, with Marci returning home later on Sunday. It was a perfect day and congratulations to Mary from her many Walton friends. Judy Lee and myself, Sandra Josling, Lisa Glanville and Anne Pelletier enjoyed a fantastic gourmet meal in Goderich on Sunday at the home of John Rutledge and Bill Curry. Our adventure started on arrival in the sitting room with hot hors d'oeu'vres and martinis along with egg salad and pepper jelly on pumpernickel appetizers. Moving to the dining room that was set with John's grandmother's good china; we began our meal with egg drop soup. A different wine was served by sommelier John with each course. The entree of duck and quail a l'orange with Queen Anne rice and asparagus followed. An entertaining McGavins greet at Duffs Duff's United Church congregation was greeted by Jeff, Shannon, Jacob, Mackenzie and Teagan McGavin on the Sunday of baptism. The theme of the service was water. Being baptized were Meg Kathryn Fritz, daughter of Greg and Jill Fritz. The collection was gathered by Ross Bennett and Jeff McGavin. time Of eating the quail and finding the wish bones had the guests enjoying themselves immensely. A lovely mandarin spinach salad followed the entree, An absolutely delicious lemon ice was served to cleanse the pallette before the flaming crepe suzette was presented by the amazing chef of the evening, Bill Curry. Fresh baked caraway rye rolls and Ethiopian coffee, along with more wine, was enjoyed during the meal. There was lots of great conversation, reminiscing of Aunt Maggie's hamburgers in Brussels, changes in the town and getting to know everyone filled in the time from 5 to 9:30 p.m. that we sat at the table. It was a relaxing and thoroughly enjoyable evening and meal. Upon departure we received a parting gift of homemade barbecue sauce. It was probably a once-in-a- lifetime exposure to fine dining that we will all remember and savour for quite awhile. Thanks to John and Bill for this wonderful experience which they donated to the Brussels Legion auction last year.
