It’s an intimate night full of warmth, stories, and connection — because no one should be alone at Christmas. *** ### 🍽️ What’s On the Menu Turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, corn, carrots, stuffing, cranberry sauce, turnip, gravy — and all the comfort food that makes Christmas feel like home. *There will be no Vegetarian main only sides will be available.* Please bring a **dessert for 4 people** — something baked or festive is perfect! (You’ll take your leftovers home.) *** ### 🎁 Event Details **📅 Date:** Christmas Day **⏰ Time:** Arrive anytime after **6:00 PM** — dinner served promptly at **7:00 PM** (please don’t be late!) **📍 Location:** Near Sherbourne & Wellesley — exact address texted 24 hrs before **🐱 Note:** Cookie the Cat will be in attendance (or hiding gracefully). *** ### 💲Cost & RSVP **$25** to cover the food (e-transfer within 24 hrs of signing up) → **mathewmaclean@hotmail.com** No refunds (since groceries are purchased ahead). If the event is cancelled, you’ll receive a full refund.
