We were all at Big Bowl to gab it up and chow down - which is exactly what we did! We definitely need to do this more than once a year! Can you believe September 2009 was the last time I saw Beth and Mara!?
I'd never been to Big Bowl before and to be honest, I was so busy conversing that I really didn't study the menu like I normally would. I opted for a ginger seafood dish, with scallops and shrimp.
It was good, but because I requested no mushrooms, there really wasn't much in terms of veggies - just the green onion bits.
Before we said our goodbyes we got a group shot. Last time we totally forgot to get pictures together!
I left with some goodies too, of course!
Jenn made everybody mini banana muffins with chocolate chips. Forgive the notebook paper background, but I had to get a really quick pic because this was the last one! They were so good, I had all I could do to save one for a shot!
Mel made an awesome white chocolate "bark" with pecans and dried cranberries. This is so creamy and delicious - just my type of dessert! I'm not a huge fan of chocolate, but dark and white chocolate are an exception!!
And Beth was such a sweetheart to get up early and make us all pumpkin scones! I've already gobbled up
Thanks girls! Di, Kelly, and I had a blast with you! :)

Thanks again for picking me up! It was so great to meet you in person finally!
FABULOUS meet-up group!
Looks like tons of fun. I get sad sometimes that I live so in-the-middle-of-nowhere that I never get to do blogger meetups!
We are mushroom-hating twinsies! :)
Oh yay! So Di and Kelly went too? Awesome! I'm so sad I missed it...I would have loved to meet all them lovely ladies! And no, why did you wait SOOO long to have another meet-up? If I were in Chicago area, I would be hounding you to meet up all the damn time. Hahaha! Love you!!
Aw looks like such a fun meet-up! I seriously wish I could have been there!
We had a great time - so good to see you, and I agree, once a year is not often enough!
Blogger meet-ups are always SO much fun..looks like you had a great time with great food!

this place must have been sooo sweet, say, up til the early 70's..Woodbury was still very untouched.. shopping in "Mayberry", i mean Syosset..very low key..very quiet, very chic and understated.
