Post #1 - February 5th, 2020, 3:24 pmlet's get this ship up and sailing again, people. please join me and 8 others for 2020's first dessert exchange. per usual, i'll provide dinner and non-alcoholic drink. please bring a dessert and alcohol (if you like). and bring containers so you can take home some of each dessert to enjoy later. i am a cat owner, living in logan square, so probably best to stay away if you have severe allergies. easy parking, 15 minute walk from the blue line and 2 blocks from both the armitage and fullerton buses should make this accessible to most. i'd love to see some people who've never been to a dessert exchange before- a good time is had by all, in my experience...

Post #19 - February 24th, 2020, 1:40 pmHi Joan, et al,
I am looking forward to gathering on Sunday. I am hoping this wintry weather blows through town and blows back out by Sunday. I am thinking that it’s not too early to think thoughts of Purim and am currently planning to bring a delicious batch of Apricot Browned Butter Hazelnut Hamentaschen....Last edited by kalamazoogal on February 26th, 2020, 12:58 pm, edited 2 times in total."A party without cake is really just a meeting" ~ Julia Child

I'm so glad I checked this thread when you posted because this weekend snuck up on me. I could have sworn that March was still a couple of weeks away.

Post #24 - February 27th, 2020, 5:10 pmThat prune cake is delicious Joan. I am going to make something with salted caramel, most probably some tarts not sure yet what form it will take.Cookie Monster

The only thing I like almost as much as chocolate is salted caramel, I'm sure whatever you make will be delicious.Cookie Monster wrote:That prune cake is delicious Joan. I am going to make something with salted caramel, most probably some tarts not sure yet what form it will take.

Post #26 - March 1st, 2020, 8:57 pmMolly was my taste tester for tonight: she adored Lauren S's chocolate budino and the olive oil cake! And my coworker's take on the chocolate chip cookie w/ cream cheese: "f*cking incredible." Still waiting to try Joan's fudge and chocolate cake (?). Only 24 hours to go!
Thank you for hosting, Joan. I had a lovely time with the group and next time I'll be sure my fast doesn't overlap.

Post #27 - March 28th, 2020, 7:03 amDearest Joan,
Thank you so much for hosting. As usual it is very difficult for me to taste the desserts at the exchange because your meal was delicious, even though I could not eat a thing until darn near 6 pm!Ava-"If you get down and out, just get in the kitchen and bake a cake."- Jean Strickland
