Valentine Dinner...



Our neighborhood has a progressive dinner every year at this time. I always like to volunteer to host because I can do pink and red. It's been so fun putting this table together this morning. I wish the food was going to be something French and spectacular with cream sauce, but with all this frilly foofy stuff.. I'm making Taco Soup.. it's my never (almost never fail) go to recipe. I wish I had 10 of them, but I don't. Someday though, I'm going to set this table and make something fabulously French with cream sauce. :)

What a fun neighborhood tradition! You could serve anything when the table looks that inviting!
I am sure you can make a romantic dinner for C later in the week and use this fabulous setting again!

That table looks so inviting and pretty. I love the little favor bags and the name cards. What a cute touch! I hope you have a great time. Taco soup is perfect on a cold day!

What a beautiful table setting! And a beautiful blog too -- just discovered you so went back a few days. I think the sisters you mentioned were named Delaney? One outlived the other (can't remember which) & even wrote another book about life after her sister had died. Will go look at your Etsy shop now! Jane
