My friend Jen came to me with the idea to start a Supper Club with some of the ladies we go to church with. She had been part of a Supper Club back in Texas and loved it. I agreed to be her partner on our Supper Club opening night. Our theme was, "Baby, It's Cold Outside." To go along with our theme we tried to have comfort type foods. Our menu consisted a 5 course meal:
Wassail and Strawberry Tomato Bruschetta
Rich and Creamy Tomato Basil Soup
Walnut and Apple Salad (with some pop rock action on top)
Pot Roast and Asparagus with Prosciutto
Lava Cakes
After everyone enjoyed some warm Wassail and the appetizers we said a prayer and then we had everyone come and sit down at our frosted decorated table. We played the song, "Baby, It's Cold Outside," by Michael Buble as we served the soup. Jen and I plated every dish except the appetizers. We ate along the way but we were there mainly to serve and clear. Between the main meal and dessert we had a little activity of decorating mugs with permanent markers and then baking them so the ink would remain permanent on the mugs. There were some adorable mugs created. When the desserts were ready we sat down with everyone and enjoyed the last course. At the end of the night we talked about ground rules for our Supper Club and drew names for partners. It was a fantastic night. I am really looking forward to getting some good recipes this year!
