Blog & Recipe from Barbara Jones of QuiltSoup

Hello All, I am dragging quilts and fabric and lunch to Wyoming tomorrow to teach class. I will take a few pictures of the quilts to post on the blog when I get home. I always take Curried Chicken Salad with me. (See below for my special recipe). It makes a good ladies luncheon or Quilt Group supper. I usually do fresh baked rolls, pineapple and banana chunks for appetizer and brownies for dessert.
Bet you wished you were coming to class don't you? Just kidding.
All the best & Enjoy! Barbara
