"DG Gourmet Soup Exchange Party” WDC DG is hosting a potluck with a twist – contribute a batch of your signature homemade soup or stew and take home samples of your favorite recipes. We’ll share hearty winter recipes and sample side dishes that can complete any meal.

Here’s how it works:

1. Each guest makes enough of their favorite soup to share a four-serving container with each person attending the party.
2. Each guest brings frozen containers of their soup and recipe cards to go with them.
3. She also brings one container that isn't frozen for sampling. The hostess heats the sampler soups and serves them with warm bread and dessert.
4. Everyone leaves with samples and recipes cards for the other dishes.

When: Saturday, February 9 at 11:00 a.m.
Where: A member's home in Washington, DC
Metro: U Street/Cardozo station or Dupont Circle station (Green/Yellow line or Red line)
Cost: Free!

For more information or to RSVP, contact Danielle at vpprogramming@wdcdeltagamma.org.
