I LOVE to have friends over for dinner, but we do it way too seldom. That's one thing I plan to do more of in 2011. My cooking definitely is not gourmet, but at least I can set a pretty table!
Tonight's progressive dinner begins at S's for appetizers, then here for the main course, and on to J's for dessert! (Yes, the table is set for eight. We're not stopping at R's house this year.) I hope all of you have had the chance to participate in one of these evenings. It is so much fun, especially during the holidays...seeing everyone's home decorated so beautifully!
More photos later tonight........
Now, I just hope Santa brings that new camera I really, really want! Wouldn't you agree that I need one?!

Your table looks lovely. I haven't done a progressive dinner in years. What a great idea!

Becky you set a beautiful table! This looks like fun. Enjoy! hugs, Linda
ReplyDeleteSounds like a lot of fun, Becky! I hope you have a great time. Your table looks beautiful! :D
ReplyDeleteHave a great time! The table looks very pretty, but it's the company that makes the evening shine!
ReplyDeleteHope you have an amazing time, sound like so much fun!
ReplyDeleteAnd a camera sounds great, I agree that would make a lovely gift for you this year :)
PS: I wish for a camera too... my beloved camera broke while I was in Sicily :(
Hi Becky, what a wonderful idea. Your table is beautiful. What did you fix? Will Santa be reading your blog so he knows you would like a new camera? I will remind him on my blog too:)
ReplyDeleteOh, progressive dinners! Can you sign up to be the paper products person? :-)
ReplyDeleteI haven't thought of progressive dinners in years. My parents used to do them, but I have never had the privilege/fun...Have you been naughty or nice? Your answer dictates whether you get a camera or not...
ReplyDeleteOh,Becky,I'm sure the progressive dinner was a blast. And I hope Santa puts the camera you want in your stocking because I'm sure you've been a good girl! Susan
ReplyDeleteVery pretty table. Hope it was fun!
ReplyDeleteHi Becky,
ReplyDeleteMartha Stewart's got nothing on you. You are so talented. Hope the dinner was fun, and I hope you get a camera.

Progressive dinners are always fun, aren't they?
ReplyDeleteGreat table!
=)
Becky I'm sure you had a wonderful time and I'm sure your main course was a hit. How fun it must be to plan such an event.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you my dear friend.
How pretty! Hope you had fun!!
ReplyDeleteLovely table - and how fun going to different places for the different courses. I'll have to think about that sometime.
ReplyDeletehow nice! a pretty table for me is as important as a good bottle of wine and good food - it makes everything taste much better (and makes me feel so important!) - I hope you had a blast!!
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone! We had a great time, although one of the couples couldn't make it at the last minute. I fixed the main course...pot roast in the crockpot, plus potatoes, carrots, corn, rolls, etc. We plan to do this more often! Oh, and thanks, too for the wishes that I DO get a camera from Santa!!
ReplyDeleteNice.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely, I think you must have a camera. (I'm wishing for one too.)
