    i'm sorry, sue, that you can't make it-but a wedding is probably good compensation. celia- even if it's just the 2 of us- let's do it! i have so many desserts i've been wanting to try, without having to eat them myself, that it'll take me a while to figure out which one i'll make...

    Hi @justjoan
    I think @misseyblu1 tried to send a private message that she cannot come, but yes, let’s do it, even if it’s only a small group (even just 2!)

    HI,

    Small Household Exchange is meeting nearly at the same time, so I cannot make it. BTW - I only noticed just now.

    hey everyone- just bumping this thread. we have plenty of room if (vaccinated) others want to join us on sunday in logan square for a vegetarian dinner and delicious desserts.
    ...i can seat 8 comfortably, and we only have 4 coming so far. don't be shy- if you wondered what this monthly event is all about- come and see for yourself! it's a great opportunity to make that intriguing dessert you always wanted to try but dont want to have to eat all by yourself. bring an appetite and some containers to take home desserts.

    Hi Joan (and hopefully Ava and Elaine? and maybe others?)
    I have decided to attempt Chetna Makan's Pear & Cardamom Upside down cake. And if I am REALLY ambitious, I may bring some Cardamom Ice Cream to dollop on your slices! Looking forward to seeing you and sharing some time and deliciousness together. Celia

    great minds think alike... i, too, was planning to make my own version of a pear upside down cake. but now i won't. i won't have any trouble coming up with something else, so it's not a problem. the cardamom ice cream sounds great!!
    for supper, fyi, i plan to make sweet potato/chipotle enchiladas and an avocado and orange salad...though i reserve the right to change my mind...

    I've invited a friend who is not an LTHer to join us. I think she's going to bring some of those delicious Florentines from tag's in Evanston as she's not much of a baker,But she's good company.
    I'm craving chocolate espresso cheesecake so I'm going to make it for us. This way I won't have to eat all of it myself. See you all on Sunday
