Gathering: What was your favorite party or gathering (large or small) in 2011? Who would you like to gather with in 2012?
A simple backyard summer BBQ at JB's comes to mind. Intimate, casual, good friends, thought provoking conversations, bursts of laughing fits. I spent some time over the hot grill watching skewers of shrimp become translucent. A juicy tenderloin sizzled and summer vegetables charred. Sweet summer corn boiled in a pot on the stove. I baked an apple pie, someone brought gooey, fudgy brownies that were worthy of moans. As the night progressed the hula hoop found its way on various hips. I went home slightly tired, and happy.
I like to entertain, and hope to have more dinner parties in 2012 bringing together eclectic groups of friends, inspiring conversation and connection.
