Alfresco Dining at my Daughter's House



My daughter and son-in-law hosted a birthday party enjoying a beautiful night on their deck. Each couple brought a dish to share. 





















They are all fabulous cooks as you can see. Thanks Amy and Scott for letting me share your evening with my blogging friends. 


Linking to Tablescape Thursday, Wow Us Wednesdays, Outdoor Wednesday, Open House Party Thursday and Foodie Friday.

    This almost looks like a commercial for the Food Channel! Everyone did a wonderful job, and your daughter & son-in-law provided a perfect setting for a fun-filled evening with friends!

    Hi Bonnie, it looks like a fabulous party! The table looked so inviting and the food wonderful, especially that gorgeous tart! I love the way you American's do that covered dish thing...it's wonderful and really takes the strain off. Many thanks for visiting and for the tip. I'm not too good at those linky parties, but maybe I will give it a shot. Much love, Linda x

    Hi Bonnie! Oh, how lovely and looks like everyone must have had a beautiful time. Good looking food too!
    Thanks for popping in to see my little chicken pot holders. Oh, my heavens no! I didn't make it up - I followed a pattern. Don't be too impressed but I'm sure glad you like them! ;)
    Be a sweetie,
    Shelia;)
