Pleasant Hills CWA
Our Christmas break-up was held at Kay and Peter Dean’s home at Morven, and the weather was kind, making it a very enjoyable time of fellowship and friendship finishing with a delicious lunch.
We held our last Land Cookery for the year, the results were:
- Light Fruit Cake: 1st Margaret Hasler, 2nd Lyn Jacobsen, 3rd Lyn Lieschke
- Plum Pudding: 1st Lyn Jacobsen
- Microwave Strawberry Jam: equal first Margaret Hasler and Lyn Lieschke
- Tomato Jam: 1st Margaret Hasler
We hope everyone had a nice break, and now it’s back to reality and the start of a new year. We are welcoming some new members to our Branch, which is very exciting.
It is our turn to donate the raffle for the Group Council Meeting, which is being held at Uranquinty on Monday, 24th February and Nett has offered to mosaic a mirror for this purpose.
We have been asked to cater for a morning tea at Bunnings at the end of January, and plans are in hand.
Henty Show is being held on Saturday the 8th February, and we are looking for items for our entry which, please note has to be submitted early. Anyone who has been busy over the break and has made a suitable item, can you please contact Lyn on 0428690222.
We also have the Group Handicraft and Land Cookery Day coming up next month, so we are encouraging our crafty ladies to get busy.
McKenzie’s Foods have some great free e-books available to download at www.mckenziesfoods.com.au/ebooks.
We were very excited on Australia Day that at the Greater Hume Shire Celebrations, our Life member, Narelle Morey and her son Jason were given a special Community Recognition Award from the Henty community as a thank you to them and Narelle’s parents, Les and Mary Dale for the contribution that Dales IGA have made to Henty over the past 72 years! So well deserved!
We wish both Margaret Hasler and Eunice McRae a speedy recovery.
Our next meeting is to be held on Wednesday, 12th February at 10.30am at the Albury Commercial Club.
Everyone is most welcome!
Lyn Jacobsen, CWA
