Traditional Twelfth Night festivities included the last appearance of the Yule Log. |
Van Wyck Brooks Historic District president John Stewart, Jr., tells Plainfield Today that tickets for the District''s annual Twelfth Night** Progressive Dinner are going fast. You know what that means -- act now if you don't want to miss this ever-popular winter event.
Four homes of District members will be open as diners move from one to the other for various courses of the meal and culminate with after-dinner cordials.
Those opening their homes this year are April Stefel (appetizers), Barbara and Gordon Fuller (entrée), Barbara and Abraham Drake (desserts) and Vicki Blasucci (cordials).
Tickets are $30/person for VWB members and $40/non-members. Memberships (at $10 per person) may be renewed along with ticket purchase. To reserve your tickets, contact VWB member Larry Quirk by email at qman56@comcast.net. For more about the Van Wyck Brooks Historic District, visit their website here.
**Twelfth Night traditionally concluded the Christmas festivities, among which was the burning of the Yule Log, and was celebrated on the eve of the Epiphany, the twelfth night after Christmas.
