Cow Town Meets Pioneer Woman

posted by Momo Fali on March 12, 2011

Almost one month ago, I met some friends for dinner.  There was Amy, Christina, Wendy…oh, and ho-hum, Ree Drummond.

Yes, it has taken me nearly a month to tell you that I went to dinner with The Pioneer Woman; the N.Y. Times best-selling author and one of Forbes’ top 25 Web Celebs.  You’re lucky I’m telling you at all, because I am wildly popular and busy.  Okay, just busy.

Ree was in town for a book signing and joined us for a fabulous dinner where we had a lot of wine and I drank Ree under the table.

Or, maybe she was just looking for the lens cap I dropped.

There were also cookies as big as your face.

And, then we went for ice cream.  Splendid ice cream.

We talked, laughed and took a bundle of pictures.  Like more than I took when my kids were born.

This is the one where I told everyone to make a funny face and the only person who heard me, was me.

One of the best things about blogging is how special it is to hang out with the friends you meet online.

But, the wine and cookies as big as your face aren’t so bad either.

    Too freaking cool! I wish I could’ve been there to meet both of you awesome ladies!

    What else are you keeping a secret from us? It will take an entire suitcase of those cookies in San Diego to overcome this outrage. I like chocolate chip. (SO cool.)

    You looked purdy.

    Too bad PW is a total phony and a liar. She’s a millionaire, not a real rancher.

      Aw, I love Ree and she’s as down to earth as anyone I’ve ever met. I don’t think she’s ever claimed to be a rancher and I won’t begrudge anyone their millions!

    Correction: She’s claimed several times she’s just a “little ol’ ranch wife.”

    That sounds awesome. I’m super jealous. The cookies look even more awesome. YUM.

    Looks like you all had a great time! And that those cookies were to dive for.

    I’m jealous – how dare Ree get to spend time with you before I do! Can’t wait to see you in San Diego!

    I have absolutely no idea what “Riesling Poached Pear” sorbet tastes like, but it sounds DIVINE.
