Danke Shoen

Hi Ladies,

Sandy: A big thank you for hosting last night. Your beautiful home was the perfect backdrop for an evening of refined food, stimulating conversation and good wine. It was also a great backdrop for an evening of overdulgence, silly gossip and beer.

The recipes are posted as is the photo gallery. Thank you Annie for the wonderful photos which really captured the evening. I'm especially fond of the snow picture for some reason. A beautiful snowfall seemed an appropriate way to end the night.

Thanks to all for your excellent cooking. Everything was perfect.

Liebe,

Lori
