You and your friends know how to do it right!!!! Wish we had neighbors like that.
I love your cooking club! And that panna cotta? How marvelous. And nothing better than fennel soup; I'd really like to make that recipe, it looks excellent. (I already have your Isle of Pines recipe...yum)
Some day, I'm going to come down and join the party!
This all looks so good!
Sign me up, what a great idea.
Velva, so happy you invited me here today. So rewarding, just to see all this marvelous food all in one place.
p.s. I just posted a short story about a young graduate student during her sojourn at Florida State University back in the seventies. Should you wish to see/read it, you'll
find the blog classroomnotes on my profile.
Tallahassee was always full of magic!
great evening ,great food,wonderful job,velva!congrats!
The loveliest menu and I have my eye on those mushrooms in Madeira today. Tomorrow it will be another one of your dishes and the next day, I will be enchanted with another. (How does one get an invite.)
Looks fantastic:@)
What a great evening.
Everything looks so delicious ♥
What an awesome spread. That may be the most inviting looking ratatouille I've ever seen!
lovely food I need a club here :-)
Seriously yummy!!..xx
Sounds like fun and I know it is; mant years ago we had a cooking club. Great memories. Creamed mushrooms on toast is fantastic.
Looks like a great party, with a really fantastic menu! Just delicious! Cooking Club sounds so much fun!
This looks so good! I am going to check out your other posts. I am your newest follower too.
I guess I live too far away to ask to join your club. I can, however, live vicariously so keep posting those recipes.
Best,
Bonnie
An excellent dinner, each course looks wonderful!
What fun this club must be. The colors, textures and flavors would keep me busy all evening!
What a wonderful idea. I need to start my own cooking club. Seeing your delicious eats certainly inspires me! Thank you for sharing, my blogging friend! I'm sending you wishes for a happy and delicious week!
Thanks for visiting my blog! Your blog is very mouthwatering! And I love the very cute header of the tomato vine. Do you take all the pictures except for Wednesday? They are excellent! But I don't think I will try that snake coctail from a few posts back, why is it named that?
Makes me wish I had been there!!!
Sounds like great fun at this club!
That's quite a spread - how do I join?
Wow, beautiful food that looks delicious.
It all looks amazing, but the picture of the ratatouille is particularly drool-worthy.
Beautiful spread! I always wish I were at your get togethers...you guys know how to do it right!
