What a great vacation we had in Florida. Terry came to see me for a week. It was time for my sister to meet some close friends I have made in the time I have been in Florida. Everyone has heard about each other so it was time to meet. What better way to introduce everyone then over dinner.
I decided it was time to revive the dinner party I had when I was still in Wisconsin. My sister rented a beautiful place in Safety Harbor. The historical Carriage House. It was perfect. Space was amazing for a dinner party of 9.
We were lucky to have all the amenities. We were able to use the items in the house that were already there. Nice and simpler. Everyone was close but still had room to dive in...LOL!
Because this was our 4th dinner party but our first in Florida, no one knew what to expect. All I told them was to wear stretchy pants and have empty tummies.
Like always, we tried to keep the menu simple but it never turns out that way.
Here is what was on the menu...
 |
| Cepresi Salad with a Zucchini Spiral stuffed with Brie and a variety of veggies |
 |
| Garden salad with homemade Roasted Garlic Dressing |
 |
| Cream of Mushroom Soup |
 |
| Seafood Pasta |
 |
| Mango Palette Cleanser |
 |
| Chocolate Lava Cake with Creme Anglaise |
 |
| Happy faces and full tummies! |
Thanks everyone for the great time, great conversation and lots of laughs! It was decided that we will do it all over again next year. Same time, same place with a new menu!
