How it all began

For a few years I had drooled over my sisters gourmet group that she did with a group of 12 friends, it looked like so much fun, but she lived in another state so unless I was willing to commute 12 hours to be part of it I was out of luck.   I mentioned it to a friend or two every now and then but wasn't sure I could actually find enough people who were willing to put in the time and resources to make it happen so the idea just stayed on the back burner, until finally I could handle it no more.  I found myself a partner and we hoped we could convince 4 other girls to do it with us so we'd have a group of 6 and 3 dinners a year.  We were completely and very pleasantly surprised when one friend asked another and another and before we knew it the group had hit max capacity with 12 of us.  So now, I no longer have to drool, I can just enjoy and have a little creative therapy in the midst of daily life!
