Cooking Club

I was thinking about the delima of eating out and eating at friends' homes the other day, and remembering how nice it used to be doing both without worry. I don't know about you guys, but I would love to be able to have a meal out without risking illness! One thing that I thought would be fun is to start a cooking club with other people with celiac disease, and take turns at each others homes cooking on the weekends. Unfortunatly for me I live in a small town, and there probably aren't enough people in the area to start a club. But I was wondering if any of you have ever been able to do something like this, either through a support group or this board. If so, how did it work out? I just think it would be a nice way for people to relax and enjoy being entertained as well as entertaining!

I havent done this, but i do know that my parents used to belong to one. They are not celiacs, but i think it is a wonderful idea for celiacs. Of course, it does require finding enough people who are interested but i say do it- u wont have to feel deprived that ur not going out to eat b/c u can still be social and you wont have to worry about the dangers of eating out... i dont know where you live, but if you are planning on getting a group together 1x/month or something, it prob wouldnt be too hard to find people in nearby towns-- good luck- and let us know how it goes!
