Christmas cake.

in’ for afternoon tea and a quiet Christmas drink, in the RSL Rooms at the
Library Complex.

Christmas Celebrations for Hay CWA
Lyn and Ian Curtayne opened their historic home and catered the Country Women's Association’s Christmas Party. A
beautiful cold buffet followed by incredible desserts was enjoyed by those present. One of Lyn’s salads was ambrosia
salad: a sweet accompaniment to savoury dishes which can also double as a dessert. The recipe on Page 22 is not
Lyn’s recipe, as any good cook knows, you never share your secrets.
CWA has had a very successful 2013 with the Devonshire tea stand at the Hay Show and the Flower Show raising
funds which allow CWA to donate back to the local community. CWA meetings will recommence on the first Friday in
February (7th) at 10am in the RSL Rooms at the Library Complex.
