FCM Book Club: Fifty Shades of Blushing...


Women around the world are reading Fifty Shades of Grey so we felt like we needed to find out what the fuss was all about! The gathering was hosted by Abbie and featured plenty of food, drink and steamy conversation.
Basil Fizz
White wines
The cocktail for the evening was a Basil Fizz.  Abbie's own recipe of vodka, basil infused simple syrup and sparkling mineral water topped off with edible sweet peas. A variety of white wines and champagnes were also served.

Pickled Asparugus Rolls

Cucumber Bruschetta in Pastry


The appetizers and cocktails were followed by a dinner of herbed Copper River salmon and spring greens with green goddess dressing.



Very Vanilla



Desert was created by Skylar and featured vanilla cupcakes topped with vanilla bean frosting and silver balls. 
  


Love or hate it the book has people talking including mothers, daughters, friends and sisters. We are so sorry to be losing Amanda Balderrama to Nevada but wish her and her family the best of luck! Next up Swamplandia! hosted by Ella Wilkerson.
