Our foodie group’s recent dinner party centered on the theme Sweet Home Chicago.

​If you missed the earlier blog posts, you may catch up here - Part 1 and Part 2, for your reading pleasure.

This turned out to be one of our most interactive evenings ever thanks in part to Greg and Dan’s awesome spinning salad presentation and also Ilise’s Chicago Candy Trivia Contest, conducted just prior to my wrestling match with soft cheesecake in the kitchen. The prizes? Candy, of course!


​Before proceeding any further, you know there's gotta be a playlist for this topic, right?

Of course right.

​So here it is, the Sweet As Candy playlist. It's lipsmacking good, so hit the Play arrow and enjoy.

Cherry vanilla with walnuts. Sounds pretty good to me!

Nice post. I learn something more challenging on different blogs everyday. It will always be stimulating to read content from other writers and practice a little something from their store. I?d prefer to use some with the content on my blog whether you don?t mind. Natually I?ll give you a link on your web blog. Thanks for sharing.
