I have been meeting with the same group of seven wonderful women once a month for almost ten years at our Gourmet Club. We have experienced boyfriends, break-ups, engagements, weddings and babies together. We alternate homes, choose a theme, and each bring a part of the meal (along with the recipe if we remember).
At first, the best part of meeting was adding to our personal recipe collections, as many of us were virtual strangers. Now while the food is still great, the real pleasure is catching up, laughing and enjoying a night out together.Â
I look forward to our Gourmet Club each month, and wanted to share some of the many themes we have enjoyed, to make it easy for you to create your own fun night out. If the term ‘gourmet’ sounds too intimidating, simply call it a ‘potluck’ or ‘dinner’ club.
