Hot Crab Dip - Easy Peasy

League member Julia Child Alexandra snapped a few photos this week as she whipped up our Hot Crab Dip. She makes it look so easy! 

Assemble the ingredients (Julia would call this a mise en place)

Heat the mayo and cream cheese

Add the prepared ingredients

 

Mix in the remaining, fresh items (crab and green onion)

Serve and bask in the glow of your compliments!

 Alex, when is the next party? We're on the way! 

 

As always, you can find this recipe along with other culinary delights in "At Your Service", the Junior League of Gwinnett and North Fulton's very own cookbook.

Your Southern Peach Reviews "At Your Service"

 

Recently, we asked local blogger and League friend, Your Southern Peach, to review our beloved cookbook. We could not wait to hear her unique take on the book and she did not disappoint! We love how she highlighted what an asset the book is when planning a gathering. From pre-planned menus to entertaining tips, "At Your Service" should be a go-to for every hostess (and host!).

We recommend following Amy's blog on a regular basis while she shares her insight on decorating, entertaining, family and her killer fashion sense. A peach indeed!

Spiced Pecans - The Perfect Gift

A very special thank you goes out to Amy at Forever29 for her review of our At Your Service cookbook- specifically one of our favorites.. the Spiced Pecans!

Amy decided to utilize her cooking and crafting skills to make a special gift for her son's teachers. No doubt they appreciated the personal touches. And we can imagine her house smelled amazing over this beautiful fall weekend!

She has even generously provided the recipe over at her blog. Find that here.
