Some info about our Gourmet Group:  We are 4 couples who enjoy cooking, entertaining, and most of all, each other’s company. 

We take turns hosting in our homes.  The hosts decide on the menu (theme) from appetizers to dessert for the evening.  The hosts cook most of the meal, but give at least one course (along with all the recipes) to the other couples to prepare.  We love trying new recipes and ideas.  So most of the time the recipes are ones we haven’t cooked before, but they don’t have to be.

Our Gourmet Group were not together for New Years Eve.  However, we loved being able to celebrate a Belated New Years Eve Celebration together when another couple hosted us with a New Years Eve theme recently.

It was a great way to kick off our 2019 season of Gourmet Get-Togethers!
