Last Saturday, hubby and I attended a Connecticut bloggers meet-up hosted by Greg and Wendy of Connecticut Lifestyles Magazine and Bonnie of Home Place Blog. It was great seeing familiar faces like Jessica of The Entertaining House, Rosa of Lady Diana’s Pearls and Michele of She Is Going Places. We also met new folks like author Jane Stern (a celebrity in our midst!) of Roadfood.com, Christine of Charged and Monika of My Haute Blog.
Bonnie, Wendy and Greg whipped up the food we ate. The recipes were from Stop and Shop’s “Savory” magazine (June/July 2015 issue – you can find the online version here). Check out this pretty Grilled Chicken Caesar Salad!
Tomato, basil and mozzarella where you dip it in the dressing. What a great idea!
The pretty Tomato Tulips!

Bonnie whipped up this thirst-quenching Watermelon Margarita. I wish I could’ve taken a better picture, but I was too busy drinking.
Wendy also taught us how to use Twitter’s new app Periscope. In the foreground, you can see the watermelon pops and grilled corn – also from the magazine’s recipes!
How about a group picture?
Hamming it up for the camera! Check out the frame that Bonnie made. She’s just way too creative. . .it’s awesome!
I love this collage, Bonnie! Click the image below to read Bonnie’s post about this meet-up.
So yeah, spending the afternoon with these ladies was really time well-spent. It was definitely an afternoon of good food and good laughs with good company!
What a great time we had and I love, love, love your pics! (As always)
Can’t wait til’ the next meet up – and to try some more of those easy peasy Savory recipes!
We definitely had a great time! I love, love, love your creations that day!
