A real pro!<br /><br />hi VeggieGirl - it was a fun fun fun afternoon (with food!)<br /><br />hi Conor - you'd think that all those desserts would make us feel all sugared out. No way!<br /><br />hi Betty the Hungry Girl - it was good to see you too! I can't believe you went and had another meal. All that food doesn't show on you, lucky thing!<br /><br />hi Teresa - you're welcome. Biscuits are a good treat to give (and receive!)<br /><br />hi Steph - glad you like the cookies. I had fun making them!<br /><br />hi Linda - so many girls are good cooks, including yourself. I feel a bit in awe of you all! Lovely to see you there.<br /><br />hi Ellie - thanks so much for putting up with us all. We appreciated your organising it!<br /><br />hi Forager - it was a fantastic afternoon. And as you said, so many desserts...<br /><br />hi chocolatesuze - you are so funny - I'm glad you liked the caramels and hope you get to make some yourself soon!<br /><br />hi Simon - actually, the B&J ice cream went down a treat as well. A bit of cake, a scoop of ice cream, a bite of brownine, a scoop of ice cream...<br /><br />hi Here Comes - girls and food go together. Fact.<br /><br />hi Trissa - you are not a bad driver! Just be aware that the GPS isn't always right!<br /><br />hi Lorraine - sad you weren't there, but I think Austria is a nice compromise!<br /><br />hi Penny - I think there are enough bloggers in Melbourne to have one of your own? Or maybe you could come to Sydney for the next one!<br /><br />hi Adrian - no, hands off, hehe! The girls managed to take all the leftovers home, so nothing went to waste.<br /><br />hi Anita - 'feast' sums it up perfectly! <br /><br />hi Helen - ooh, look, Helen's cupcakes were even more incredible!<br /><br />hi MaryMoh - Ellie's rendang was amazing. Yes, there's something about a roomful of ladies...<br /><br />hi a cupcake or two - hope you can try out the caramels recipe. It's easy and the results are so worth it!OohLookBelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11031489606743430354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259536473826194612.post-49300008647625723262009-12-10T14:37:47.261+11:002009-12-10T14:37:47.261+11:00It looks like so much fun.
