Last night I had some girlfriends over for dinner. What I thought would be a relatively easy menu turned out to be me spending the whole day in the kitchen. I was right in that by themselves the dishes weren't too hard and/or time consuming but when I factored them all together...that was another story. It's okay, I had a good time cooking and every bit got gobbled up so it was worth it. :)
Here's what I made (and most of these items I made for the first time yesterday):
*Baked brie with brown sugar topping and crackers (I've made this for years, sorry, I don't have a link to the recipe, its all in my head. If you want the recipe, shoot me an email)
*Mango/avocado bruschetta
*Carrot and cilantro soup
*Mixed greens with berries and almonds
*Flourless chocolate cake with fresh whipping cream.

Wow! These all sound amazing! Wish I could join you for a girlfriend dinner!!
Sounds fresh and tasty! I can identify with being in the kitchen a lot lately. I've been hosting a lot! Exhausting but rewarding, mostly.
