The Twentieth Century Literary Club met at the new Peddler’s Boutique in downtown Arcadia on Nov. 15. Ladies were welcomed by hostesses Pam Ames, Linda Williams and Debbie Hackney into a shop filled with an amazing variety of items in a beautifully restored place of business.

Following a blessing given by Lavenia Carter, members were treated to a traditional Thanksgiving meal: southern baked ham, roasted turkey with cranberry sauce, Moma’s dressing, best-ever candied yams, scrumptious green bean casserole and biscuits. A delicious choice of cranberry cobbler with vanilla ice cream or Paula Deen’s pumpkin cake was offered for dessert. Many ladies chose a taste of both.
