Eric Ripert's Dinner Social Update -- Holy Cats, We Won
As I blogged about earlier this week, I was lucky enough to take part in a small gathering of DC food females last weekend. We made a fabulous meal, drank some excellent wine, and took photos.
The following photo — an attempt at an artsy, real-life look behind the scenes of pulling together such a feast — was selected as one of 3 winners in Ripert’s photo contest. Hooray!
See the other winning shots on Ripert’s blog, Avec Eric, and check out the rest of our photos from the evening here.
