Hola!
{Happy Cinco de Mayo everyone}
Just wanted to quickly share with you some pictures from the Gourmet Night I hosted last week with my friend, Nicole. Thanks also to my friend Courtney for the fabulous photos of the evening.
{as much as she is a great photographer she is also a fabulous cook & made the Mozzarella cheese & Lemongrass soup- delicious!}

Nicole & I wanted to have a dinner that was fresh, flavorful & light & I think we accomplished what we set out to do.
{the Rosemary Honey alone- yum!}
The theme for the evening was "woodsie" inspired. Lots of green, pinks & pieces of various types of wood, moss & flowers.
{I LOVED the wood plank place mats, that might have been my favorite decorating touch}

These place mats have quite the story & were carefully carried home on the plane & shipped home from Palymyra, NY. Our husbands made a connection with a resident there that cut up some wood planks for them. They will soon be made into pens & other fine things turned on a lathe.
{sorry, long story but interesting no less}
To end the night we had Grandma Gardner's Strawberry pie {check out the recipe for the different ingredients that go into this crust}
topped with homemade Basil Ice Cream
{soooo refreshing & light tasting- try it,
I think you'll like it!}
-some people loved this so much they wanted to lick their plates clean, I'm not going to mention any names but there were a few- |
