I wnder if the ladies in Austin wear foam bikinis?

Krissy & Laura
Jeanette's bikini top fits just right!
So sassy!
Chocolate Decadence - and it was!

Even Chef Ramsey from Hell's Kitchen would serve this wellington!


Andrea's potatoes deluxe - even "deluxe" without cheese!
Our lovely dining area complete with fresh flowers!


The sausage bread - super good!

Laura proudly models her bikini top and her wellington!

Last night's GPK met at Laura's home in South Saint Paul. Can I just say that Laura has a great home! I loved looking around at all the great decorating ideas I gathered and plan to use at my place!
So, dinner was fabulous! You see the menu posted below and I have a few photos to share. Krissy brought us bikini tops to wear - unfortunately, we're having unseasonably chilly and rainy weather so we opted to wear them outside our sweaters. :) Actually, just the sisters tried theirs on! They get 10 points for bravery without the aid of wine!

Speaking of wine, Laura also served Winehaven's Raspberry wine. Winehaven is a local winery and they also produce a cranberry and a honey flavor. My absolute favorite wine in the world right now, is anything from Winehaven! Thanks Laura! And... she had no idea it was my fave!

Dinner was amazing! I loved everything everyone else brought but wasn't thrilled with my dish - Stewed Tomatoes. They were too sweet for my taste, but the other girls loved them. My favorite was the potato dish and the wellington - oh, and dessert!! SO good!

What say the girls? Please comment below ladies!

Thanks again for a wonderful evening!
PS - thank you to Jeanette's & Laura's mom for sending each of us a copy of the Austin Women's Club Cookbook! What a nice surprise!
