Gill hosted the dinner at her home to celebrate her son Tim's visit to Nova Scotia. The evening began with a cocktail hour with munchies. For dinner Gill served lobster. One whole lobster was placed on every plate and a basket of bread in the middle of the table. Gill, being smart, asked Sobey's to cook the lobsters and cool them down so she had no fuss and muss with the cooking. We ate the lobsters cool. They were delicious.
Next course was corn-on-the-cob. It was excellent local corn, cooked by Mary. The third course of the meal was a big salad, full of hearts of palm, avocado, cucumber, tomato and everything else that one could put into a salad, and made by Claussen.
Finally, dessert was a do it yourself effort. Two types of ice cream were brought to the table, along with a large bowl of blueberries and we each helped ourselves. It was a fine ending to a wonderful celebration. After all, we have known Tim all his life and we only get to see him every so often here in Nova Scotia.
