SOUP: #FNIchat 01.07.13
What’s hot and satisfying and so tempting to jump right into? Why, #FNIchat is, of course…but it’s SOUP that we’re after here! Join us, and all of your favorite foodies, for a Twitter event served plentifully and deliciously — and sometimes spicily — in celebration of the new year. We’ll double dip our tastiest tweets into a bowl full of January’s first Monday with a soup-seeking crew of food lovers. Come with your best tips, tricks, recipes, and food memories, and plan to leave with a hot pot full of inspiration.
NEW! We’d love to start sharing all recipes exchanged during Foodies’ Night In via Pinterest by inviting you to pin on the #FNIchat boards. Please shoot us a quick email (molly@cookingwithcaitlin.com) to give us your email address or Pinterest name, or leave in a comment below.

How Foodies’ Night In Works:.
Late Monday afternoons (4-6pm eastern to be exact) we meet through Twitter. Using the hashtag #FNIchat we greet each other at the virtual door, and get cozy to talk about whatever food-related topic we are featuring that day. Typically the topic will be determined by the weekly sponsor of #FNIchat. We, at Cooking with Caitlin, compile at least ten questions that serve as the framework of the conversation over the two hours of #FNIchat. Then, the hosts throw out each question at pre-determined times throughout #FNIchat. We hope that YOU will join in the fun-filled foodie conversation and share your thoughts, recipes, tips, ask questions…and most certainly make new friends! Can’t wait to *see* you there.
