Jan Korea shows off one of several party dishes she
serves up for friends and family occasionally.
Jan's Party recipes
prove to be 'big hit'
BY PAULINE LEWIS
Staff Writer
Approximately forty ladies
enjoyed a lovely luncheon Friday at
the King’s Crest home of Mr. and
Mrs. Jim Kerce. Each guest was
given a lei as she arrived.
The home was tastefully
decorated with a variety of
arrangements.
The party table’s centerpiece was
a real watermelon cut to resemble a
unique flower container, which held
beautiful summer flowers.
An assortment of salads,
vegetables and fruits, surrounded the
centerpiece. Miniature biscuits,
muffins, several delicious cakes,
coffee, tea and soft drinks were
served from the side table.
The hostess had prepared all of
the food herself, except the
miniature biscuits, which a friend,
Nell Shelton, had prepared.
So many of the guests requested
copies of the recipes Jan used, she
finally agreed to let me run them in
the Houston Times-Journal so that
all of the ladies could get copies.
They are listed below:
Jan Kerce, formerly of
Tallahassee, Fla., is a member of
the faculty at Westfield Schools.
Her young daughter, Suzanne
Rowe, resides with her and her
husband.
