We had our 3rd book club meeting last night. We all met at Kristi's house (thanks Kristi!). We had a delicious homemade meal.
The menu:
For appetizers we had crab-cakes made by yours truly. At the end of the book there was a recipe for Crab-cakes, which by the way, is excellent. They are very easy to make too so that is a plus. I also made a Lemon Remoulade sauce to go along with the crab-cakes and the shrimp.
They were better than what they look like on this picture,
but you get the idea.
Brittney was in charge of the shrimp. She did an excellent job marinating and grilling the shrimp. She is such a champ with the grill even though the starter was broken. I wanted to capture the explosion as the grill started but this is as close as I got. :0)
Kristi baked the potatoes. They were so yummy!
Elizabeth was in charged of all the stuff for the baked potatoes. Did you know you can add red bell pepper, grape tomatoes and Italian dressing to your baked potato in addition to the other stuff like butter, sour cream and cheese? I've never had it so loaded like that before, but I'm glad I tried it. It was really good. Definitely not P90X approved!
Lucy cooked the best broccoli ever, which complimented the meal very nicely. She also brought Limeade.
And to end the meal, we had Key Lime Pie! Thanks Heather, it was heavenly!
Okay, so with all that being said, we are ready to embark on our new adventure as we read our 4th book selected by Heather....
Drum roll please...
Stay tuned, who knows....we might end up in New York to discuss this book next month!
