The first month

What is the best way to cheer up a friend? Pedicures, shopping, wine tasting, a walk? These were a few of the options I tossed around, waiting for any sign of interest from my friend. "Or..." I said, "we could cook."

That's how it started. We searched our food magazines and cookbooks, scoured the internet, and decided to try five new recipes, cook for two families, and share a bottle of wine while we were at it. The next week we included one more friend and photos to track the journey. Now, as we embark on our fifth week, we are preparing for a new twist: we've each chosen and shopped for our recipes in secret. Here's hoping that all three families will like our choices and that we won't all choose the same things!

It is past 3:00 and I am anxiously awaiting the arrival of "the girls." I can't wait for each of us to reveal our meals.  Here's to surprises... Cheers!
