This fact does not make me unique. Most of us do. The pleasures of food bring us together. Delicious food is always going to taste delicious . . . but isn't it even more delicious when you're sharing it with someone?
In the last year, I have gone out to eat with girlfriends several times and each time someone says, "We need to do this again." We have so much fun tasting each other's food and even more fun talking and laughing the night away. This is my attempt at making sure that we actually do what we say we should do.
So let's do it. Once a month. Take turns picking the place. Open invitation. Friday nights. I've started the blog, but I want everyone to post your favorite recipes, restaurants, and food sites. Stay tuned for our first date in February.
In the words of Julia Child, "Bon Appetit."
P.S. Thanks to Holly for the whole "Better Together" concept and to Jack Johnson for writing such a cool song that actually has nothing to do with food. Well, except he mentions a mango tree. Still . . .
