Ben and I had dinner with Jenn and Scott last night at their house. It was so nice! Jenn always puts these extra little touches on everything to make it fancy and special. Thought I'd share these, and maybe you can try them out!
First, we had a cheese tasting while the dinner was cooking. Labeling appetizers is always a nice touch. But these cheeses were labeled with these little porcelain animals of whatever type of cheese was being served (goat, lamb, or cow) with the name of the cheese written on them. Aren't these cute?!
Jenn made a delicious butternut squash soup with dinner that she served in roasted pumpkins. Again, how cute and fancy!!
Dinner was lamb seasoned with rosemary, polenta, mustard greens with turkey bacon, and rolls. It was so delicious! Dinner was served on fancy paisley-patterned plates. If you have nice dishes, don't be afraid to use them!
After dinner, we watched an old Alfred Hitchcock movie starring Jimmy Stuart called "Rope". It was pretty good- and pretty unusual, as a lot of those movies are. Can't wait for the next dinner and movie night! :)
