07年的 Food Network Potluck Party廣受好評, 於是我的東西聯姻Meetup在今年的最後一次聚會就是讓大家從我列舉的食譜上挑一道菜做, 然後帶來和大家分享.
一共有十四對夫妻共襄盛舉, 有三對各做二道菜, 所以當天我們有近二十道佳餚, 外加美酒, 當天併了三張桌子才夠放, 最後還拍了難得一見的團體照 (照片模糊是因為當天我沒有測光器, 只能用猜的, 請見諒).

菜色很讚, 大家吃的很開心, 這是從喊開動到每道菜見盤底的速度就知道.

九點一到, 家裡有小孩的夫妻因為明早還得送孩子上學而先行告退,
剩下來的就是沒這問題的夫妻啦, 這下我就可以把一開始暗藏Candy做的綠茶紅豆蛋糕給端出來,
配上熱呼呼的玄米綠茶, 這樣我們可以續攤, 繼續聊.

謝謝大家出席參加, 我們的東西聯姻團體即將滿二年, 認識許多好朋友, 每個月的聚餐又可以試新餐廳, 雖然辦活動很累, 但是每次見到大家又很開心, 所以就一直辦下去囉, 看能不能辦到我們都六十五歲, 那應該可以創下新紀錄了.
