All Meadowlark ladies, including Passport members, are invited to the January Ladies Luncheon at 11:30 a.m. Thursday, Jan. 12, in the Bison Room at Meadowlark. Beth Pannbacker is this month’s hostess.

Kansas State University First Lady Sally Linton will the guest speaker. Mrs. Linton is a certified wine judge, so the group will have wine with lunch.

The group will be served three different wines during the meal. Mrs. Linton will teach us about each wine as it is served and we will learn how to evaluate it. The menu will include butternut squash soup served with white wine; seared salmon over mixed greens with artichoke hearts, goat cheese, and cabernet vinaigrette served with red wine; and dark chocolate cheesecake served with sweet dessert wine.

The cost to attend is $10 per person. Sign up in the Blue Book at the Hospitality Desk if you plan to attend.

It is an honor to have Mrs. Linton as our speaker and Olivia Collins was instrumental in scheduling her. It is with much sadness that Olivia passed away before the event occurred.
