65th Dessert Exchange, Sunday Feb 12th 4pm

Post #1 - January 10th, 2017, 8:08 pmI am excited to host the February dessert exchange in Mount Prospect. Anyone who wants to bake a dessert and come are welcome - we are happy to see first time attendees. As usual, I will serve a light dinner and then we will sample and talk about all the desserts. Bring one dessert to share and containers to take home some of everything. I have room for 10 plus myself and Joel. Let me know if you would like to attend.

Post #13 - February 11th, 2017, 11:41 amDear Sue,
I will not be able to come to the dessert exchange. I have a cold. Adding insult to injury, aside from aiding market price to Kleenex, I have lost my sense of taste. Woe is me. Enjoy the wonderful treats.

Sue F said she took pictures of the desserts before we portioned them. I'm sure she will get to it when she has time.
Thanks to Sue and Joel for generously hosting us. Your meal was a welcome bit of summer on a warm winter day.

Post #29 - March 4th, 2017, 8:58 amRonnie,
I have been in touch with Cookie Monster (Dobra) who originally was planning to host on 3/26. She is no longer able to do so. I will be hosting the next Dessert Exchange and it will bring Sunday, April 1st.
Thanks for reaching out.
