host a dinner party every month

Hosted the first one. I had 10 people, lots of food and wine. Great company. Definitely repeating the experience in July.

We hosted a murder mystery dinner party and it was a huge success! we had so much fun, and the food was fantastic! We are planning on a couple in January and February… Back on track. If I keep it up through march (three more months) I will have met my goal :)

well, it’s been awhile since I have done this, mainly because we are attempting to sell our house and that makes things crazy. In an effort to make up for the past 2 months though, We are hosting a murder mystery Christmas party AND allowing our daughter (7) to host her own Christmas “dinner” party…

we’ll see.

My husband had a work colleague here from Brazil. We hosted a small dinner party for him. It went well, though the language barrier was a bit tricky at times…
It was a GREAT way to kick off this goal!

Entertain once a month.
We had friends over for dinner on Sunday. The menu was:

My husbands delicious smoked baby back ribs
Fresh sweet corn on the cob
Homemade bread
Pasta Salad
Pineapple
Chocolate Milkshakes for dessert!

It was a lovely time!

ok… we are on for our first dinner party in October. (because of the craziness of life, we have no time between now and then.)
hurrah!
i can accomplish two goals by cooking something creative & delicious…

we had friends over for a lovely dinner last night. On the menu was:
Baked Tilapia with lots of Spice
Homemade wheat bread
Fresh greenbeans, new potatos and pearl onions
Fresh sweet corn
Strawberries with Creamy Maple Sauce for dessert
Oprah’s Lemon Drop Martini’s…yummy!

I love to cook and entertain and last nights dinner was a success!
