Thank you for visiting! We are Amanda, Tiffany, Lauren H, Lauren F, Danielle, Lisa, Meagan, Teresa, Emily, Cassie, & Bea. We are a group of women ranging in age from 27-32. 2011 marks the 5th Fall season of us getting together weekly, on Thursdays, to make dinner for eachother, talk about our kids, marriages, jobs, weddings, homes, weekends and so on. We travel as far North as Kirkland and as far South as Graham to visit each week...that's a total of nearly an hour of driving (not counting traffic), so that should show you how dedicated we are to "the cause" of having some girl time each week. A few of us are mothers and have planned our weddings. Our group also includes a dietitian, wine distributor & a few teachers ranging from elementary to high school. We are here to share our favorite recipes, update you on our girl talk each week, answer questions from experience and review products for companies and share our takes on them for the women out there just like us. Please feel free to contact us with topics you'd like us to cover or questions you may have. Our group e-mail is ThursdayGirlsNights@gmail.com Thanks again, The Girls

Holiday Gift Exchange

Ok, getting caught up here...

Thursday, Dec 16th we got together for our gift exchange. Since it's kind of a special celebration we go out to dinner. Luckily this year, the snow had melted and the roads were clear (we weren't so lucky last year), so we met in Tukwila at Grazie http://www.grazierestaurant.com/ It's a super cute, hole-in-the-wall Italian restaurant with amazing food! We got a few bottles of wine, talked about the upcoming holidays and exchanged gifts & Christmas cards. This is the 2nd year we've used an online secret-santa system. http://www.secretsanta.com/ is like an evite...as soon as everyone has RSVP'd, it sends out an email with the name of the person you are to buy for. One great thing about it is that you can post a "wish list", another is that it keeps track of the people who's name you had been given in the past, so as you don't have a repeat person to buy for in the future.

More posts to come, plus a few pictures from our 6th annual Girl's Night Cocktail Party, so stay tuned...

Amanda
