Last week we had some dear friends over for dinner. They are moving to Korea-- good for them but sad for us. Knowing that Latin food is hard to come by in the east, we settled on a Mexican menu. As usual, my husband was in charge of the food and I was in charge of the decorations.
I got some great potted succulents at Home Depot. They were already in those beautiful turquoise pots. Then I got some bright fuchsia flowers from our local flower guy. The runner was a beautiful embroidered piece I picked up in Guatemala a few years ago. It really added nice color to our white table!
I didn't have tons of time, so I hand wrote the place cards and the menu in a matching sharpie color (of course I have all the colors on hand!).
I, unfortunately, didn't get pictures of every course, but here are the fish tacos and churros. Yum!
We had a great time-- and think our friends did too!
Until next week! xoxo EventLucky
