It’s beginning to look a lot like…..
~The perfect time to start a supper club, or rekindle the one you are already in!
I’m excited to share a few pieces of press that are out right now. Shameless self promotion (I know)…but I am excited.
The article I wrote about the supper club trend is featured in the December issue of Costco Connection magazine. If you are not a subscriber, click here to read the online version.
Virginia Living Magazine captures a look at my own supper club, complete with photos from an evening at my house with recipes from my book, perfect for holiday entertaining. Here’s a look at one of the pics:
