Okay, I am now officially a grown up.
Why?
Because tonight I went to a dinner party with a menu. And not just any menu. A fabulous menu featuring the cover art from Ally Carter's new book Only the Good Spy Young. Ally was the charming and talented guest of honor, and the hostess extraordinaire was the prolific and brilliant Melissa de la Cruz. (If you haven't read Melissa's Blue Bloods series, run right out and get it. Or just click the link.)
But let's get back to this menu situation.
THERE WAS ONE!
I tell you, I can never again have a menu-less dinner party. It made everything just that much more festive, just that much more important, just that much more fun.
Also, for the record, the food was amazing, and the company was even better. Every now and then, I love my life.
Fun! Although I have considered myself a grownup from the first time I paid somebody to give me a shot.

Love menus and agendas for spicing up a dinner party or an outing. For my husband's birthday each year I make him a breakfast in bed menu that he can order from, and I've done a few day trip outings with friends that had a Schedule of Events as part of the surprise for them (also for birthdays). It makes it all seem more official and for whatever reason - like that I'm hopelessly Type A? - it gets me more excited about the occasion. Would love to see what *your* first dinner party menu will look like!

Was dinner prepared straight from the annals of the Woman's Exchange Cook Book!? (They don't make mistakes, you know...)
