January Bunko.

Hello Ladies!!!

I wanted to see if anyone

had a preference of when we

do January's bunko.

I'm thinking about the 21st.

Let me know what you think

Thanks-Suz

December Bunko

Ok Jo... twilight bunko was so fun. Not only was dinner great but it came complete with tons of caffeine and half naked (underage but who cares) men!!! I don't think I'll be able to top that... but we'll see. That being said... December Bunko will be on Dec. 3rd. I know this is really soon but the month of Dec gets a little crazy toward the middle and of course the end is completely out. I hope this day works for everyone. see you at the clubhouse... jocelyn

September Bunko

Bunko was a blast this month! Jamie was our hostess and made a wonderful girls night out. We had Tostada Salads, Chips, Salsa and Guacamole. It was delish! She even made us caramel apples for dessert and Bath Salts for the handouts. The winners received Gift Cards to the Mall. What a great Bunko night to kick off the fall season. Thanks to all of our wonderful subs for coming this month too. 

August Bunko

Bunko last month was awesome! I had the best time playing hostess this month and was excited to have the gals over. We had a Luau In my backyard with Tiki Torches and treats. For the dinner we had a Hawaiian feast complete with Kalua Pork, Rice, Pani po po rolls, mango salsa, and pineapple. I didn't get a chance to snap a picture of the food and the backyard, so just imagine it! 

For the prizes, Wendy, Jo and Suzanne won Home Decore from Krumpets. Amber won the travelers, which was my favorite.....a coconut bra and grass skirt I had from Hawaii. It was also Brooke's Birthday so we celebrated with cupcakes and a gift card to Tai Pan. What a fun night!

SOUP recipe

Okay Ladies here it is as promised:
Nordstroms Tomato Basil Soup

• 1 cup canned peeled plum tomato (ROMAS)
• 1/4 lb carrot, chopped
• 1/4 lb onion, chopped
• 1/3 tablespoon dry basil
• 1/8 cup olive oil
• 1/4 gallon water
• 1/8 lb chicken base
• 1/4 quart heavy cream
• 1/3 tablespoon kosher salt
• 1/3 tablespoon black pepper

Directions

1. In a large stock pot, sautee the olive oil, carrots, and onions at medium heat for 15 minutes. (until carrots are really soft)
   

2. Add the basil, salt, pepper, and tomatoes and bring to a simmer.

3. In a large bowl, whisk the chicken base into the water until dissolved.

4. Add the water mixture to the stock pot, bring to a boil, and then simmer for 45 minutes.

5. Puree the soup using a hand blender while adding the heavy cream until it reaches a thin consistency.

I actually put everything into a blender and puree it until it is creamy. Also, you can totally used canned tomatoes. GOOD LUCK. I will get the bread stick recipe on here next!

Mark your Calendars!

Bunko for March is going to be on the 12th at the PV clubhouse. Mark your calendars. Also, if you haven't paid Trena, please do so ASAP.

I also wanted to remind everyone that if you won't be at Bunko, please let us know as soon as you can so that we aren't scrambling at the last minute to find subs.

Thanks! I just love this group. I honestly have a BLAST every month hanging out with you all!
Love ya all,
Brooke
