I belong to an ALL GIRLS cooking CLUB. No boys allowed. It was created by my good friends Maria Siegal and Lacy Berry who are my inspiration. I have learned countless tips on how to cook, bake and prepare ravishing meals. I was doing some research on ideas for our cooking club and ran accross these couple of inserts. I love eating, but cooking really takes a back seat in my life right now. Here's the url just in case you would like to read it for yourself: www.community.thenest.com/cs/ks/forums/thread/8651181.aspx
1) "Gourmet Dinner Club" tries different restaurants in nearby cities. Each month they have a theme, from Mediterranean to a "White Trash Slip and Slide" party, they have had the "Polish Wedding". Everyone is invited to bring a dish that goes with the theme, drinks are usally also coordinated and we usually come in costume. One family hosts as they have a large home and yard to accomodate everyone! Our guests are married couples who are welcome to bring their children, young 20/30 something's and we have a few "mom's and dad's" too. All are welcome and a good time is had by all!" Sounds good to me!! I think we should try it!!
2) Dinner is usually followed by a game or activity but not always. Sometimes we dress up to go along with the theme. Our past themes have been: Breakfast for Dinner (everyone came in Pajamas), Luau (we were Marilyn Monroe and Joe DiMaggio, others dressed as the Clintons, Mr. and Mrs. Claus, Spam and Eggs, WiiOlympics and next month they are have Prom themed dinner. the dinner theme is "Souptacular". They made four different soups with assorted breads and salad. December didn't really have a theme. It was a great meal and we made gingerbread houses after. It really depends on your group and what you are feeling like cooking.
These articles have helped me look at dinner parties in a different light and they have inspired me to Play with My Food!!!
