HAPPY COOKING

Over the years we have eaten a good many, good things....

We have some excellent cooks in this group

and I am going to start compiling these recipes

and listing them as Bunco Recipes

and also under the contributors name. 

Any recipes you would like me to include

please email me. 

I will also try and get some pictures to go with the recipe. 

HAPPY COOKING

Vivian's Bunco ...............???

In the lovely month of May we celebrated

Vivian's Bunco

Peggy's 2nd Bunco

Peggy usually hosts our marvelous Christmas bunco, but this May

Peggy hosted bunco for the second time this year.  Vivian, our lovely

matriarch has not been feeling well, and was not able to host,

so Peggy, being the wonderful friend and neighbor she is

offered her services

What a wonderful time we had, starting with beverages on her lovely porch.

or at least a few of us did.  Isn't this

lovely with the string of lights?

Peggy cooked for us too.  

I was a little late so I didn't get a good

picture of her delicious food, but I did get to eat it.

She made several delicious quiches, salad, rolls and

much more.....and oh so scrumptious

It was a fun and silly night...

check out the highlights...

When you see a photo like this don't you wonder

what they are up to?

My guess would be they were putting a hex on me for

taking pictures.

Here's Patty reading her fortune...and by the look on Julia's face

it was not so good.

No, that wasn't it. 

I think we were drawing bachelors out of the hat for our

Bachelorette pool.

It was extremely serious business and very official.

I just wish I had gotten better bachelors.  I heard last night

that Diana might have gotten one of the better potential picks

Here is our resident bag lady...that's right ... Shelley

Shelley's goal was to see how much she could carry from table to table

Next time we may want to give her a shopping cart.

(Really Shelley, you don't have to carry your purse all evening)

She gives two fisted drinker a whole new meaning.

We also had some bell issues...actually we had dice issues too. 

Tammie someone, I won't name names

forgot to bring the bunco bag.

This bell worked just fine though.

I can't be sure...but I am thinking Debbie's watching Shelley carry

her purse from table to table...either that

or maybe she is wanting Diana's bachelor pick.

The paparazzi came in and took some random shots

Is this Katina's good side?  I always forget.

All of the tables had such pretty flowers from

Peggy's garden (maybe Vivian's too?)

Shot from the kitchen looking into the dining room

I could be wrong...but I think Charissa is telling

one of her famous stories.

and then came the gifts.  All the gifts were tied with a

cute little bow attached to a girls best friend.....no not diamonds.

COLD HARD CASH

Here are some random

WINNERS

Debbie

Shelley

Cynthia

Patty

The question is.....WHO SHALL WIN?

Good Luck

Thanks to Peggy for such

a great evening....

FUN, FUN, FUN.

Charissa's April Bunco

I know, and you know I am talking to all

of you out there that are not reading this Bunco Blog, I have

been a slacker again.

In April we enjoyed a delightful bunco party at

Charissa's

As always, Charissa was an excellent hostess.

Here she is welcoming us into her home....

Oh wait,  this isn't Charissa, this is her darling pup

Is this side better?

I think so too...

Here is our lovely hostess

Oh my, now I am really embarressed.  I know she was there.

She put out this wonderful spread for us

and this

Just delicious

and did I mention the lovely gifts?

Charissa is extremely creative and all of the gifts were

wrapped in the most charming way.

She even made her own wrapping paper on her computer

and this

and finally here is Charissa

We had such a great time as always.

Thanks Charissa

Seeing Green - Tammies March Bunco

Bunco time at Tammies

Another terrific bunco bites the dust.  Tammie

hosted our March St. Patrick's Day Bunco

and boy were we seeing green.  But I get ahead of

myself.  We were greeted by Tammie's

smiling face as we arrived

Tammie had originally scheduled this bunco in time to

celebrate St. Patrick's Day...but as any good Irishman knows

you don't need no stink'in day to celebrate...any day will do.

So with the green, came the fun....

(more on the stink'in part later)

and of course we needed food...

and Tammie

did not disappoint.  She provided

us with a Mexican feast.

Salad

Enchiladas

Tacos

Chips and Salsa

Delicious

Did I mention the cake?

First business

Check your name and address so Cynthia

could print our lovely schedule for the upcoming year.

I wonder who got October?

Then the fun began....here is Peggy and special guest sub Wendi.

Thanks for subbing Wendi!!!

Okay now comes the stink'in part I was telling you about. 

Can you guess where the stink'in came from?

No, it wasn't from our guest sub.

But it was smelled by everyone

Especially by Peggy....over and over again.

The culprit

Innocent but maybe
with just a touch of GAS ...

Then there were gifts and winners...
Katina

Cynthia

Patty

Beautiful gifts....good shoppa Tammie

and lots of silliness

A little hexing of the dice for luck

And then it was time to ring the bell until next month

Thanks Tammie for a great Bunco as usual.

Green never looked so good
