Last night was the first Gourmet Club dinner of the new “season” – 2008/09!!  I’m excited to be doing it again with Donna.  It’s just such a treat – the food, the atmosphere, the conversation.  I really enjoy it.  Last night’s dinner was hosted by Christi and Phoebe with a theme of “Blue Ribbon County Fair”.  It was probably the most casual theme that has been attempted, but the food was fabulous. 

Here’s the menu:

And they sent us home with homemade caramel apples:

Fun, fun – thanks ladies!  Donna and I are up next in October!
