We had a great time meeting at Anne's the night before the Ovations Ovarian Cancer Symposium on Saturday.
Our group came from ME, VT and all parts of MA. We had a wonderful meal - everyone brought great food and we got to sample some fabulous dishes from Kuwait made by Batoul.
And did you know that our Sue made a delicious Chocolate Raspberry DreamTorte that knocked our socks off. So if you're interested in trying your hand at baking this, Sue has graciously made the recipe available to us. By the way Sue, how did you make out the next day in your cooking challenge? I hope you won top award for this dessert!!!
