A Cooking Year Ahead

January 25, 2008 by evelyn

Our Denver group met last night for the first group Cooking With Friends of the year–Jamming in January. We had 11 women and 15 kids enjoying the jam Amy made with her dad and I made with my daughter. Check out our schedule below for inspiration in your own cities. I am most excited about the bread-making swap. Cheers to a delicious year ahead!
