You know you are attending the right event when you are greeted at the door with cocktails. On Sunday, I had the opportunity to attend the #WFMfriendsgiving put on by Whole Foods Market Seattle and Hot Stove Society. They even had a mocktail waiting for me. After a little mingling, we headed into the cooking room to make more cocktails. Sadly, I’ll have to wait until baby #2 arrives before I get to indulge in the fun cocktails.

Hot Stove Society is the cooking school of Tom Douglas Restaurants. If you live in the Seattle area, I don’t even need to explain who Tom Douglas is. If you don’t know who he is, you can read about him and his many restaurants here.  Chef Hershall led us through hands on making of sweet potato gnocchi. Then we learned how to prepare lamb. The cooking class finished off with a Thanksgiving feast. I can’t forget the amazing pumpkin pie dessert either! I’m hoping to incorporate a few cooking tips I learned in my own cooking. I am planning to cook the whole Thanksgiving meal this year. Most of the recipes I use are my Mom’s. She cooks Southern, so there will be lots of butter and cream in my dishes. However, if you aren’t up for the cooking, Wholefoods has options to pick up your entire meal. You can go here to order online and pick up in store. They offer a lot of choices from turkey to sides. Their dressing is amazing and I am thinking about picking up some for my meal.
