I've always had a love of cooking and experimenting from my (yikes!) 300 plus cookbooks. I need to find some foodie friends who would like to share cooking, wine sampling, recipes and results! I would love to take turns hosting a monthly get together, with an afternoon of cooking/dinner utilizing recipes from various cookbooks. We would then have a group critique of the book and recipes. It would be a neat way to try some new dishes, risk failure, and meet like minded people. I would like to keep the group to 4-6 people to start, and if the idea expands we could split into two meetings a month. Those who love to cook, aren't afraid of mistakes and enjoy cooking/learning with others are invited to join.

    "Oh, right, I see now. Actually, I may have to be out of town on the 25th for a family matter so I cannot say for sure at this time. Normally my weekends are more available than they are this month. I will check back when I know more. Thanks, Joni"
