I love Christmas parties. We’re having a little Christmas party this year like we have the past three years (since we’ve been married). It sounds a little insane to have it this year, seeing as I’ll be a couple days shy of full term, but with our new house that a lot of people haven’t seen and construction finally done, it really is time to celebrate.
Here are the invitations I designed and printed on the gocco screen printer. The white ink was getting old and didn’t print as well as I would have liked, but besides that I was pleased with how they turned out. I’m excited for our party. It’ll be very similar in terms of food to the one we had last year (details here).
i think so-andy says 90%.
fergie, are you guys coming up for it?
sorry that didn’t really make sense.
i don’t think i’ve ever been as excited to get this in the mail.
Wow! They’re beautiful! I want to come!
very nice!
can’t wait!
pretty!
i almost asked you to make mine, but i didn’t dare. next year please!
so excited!
Your invitation is even prettier “in person.”
those turned out really nice!
oh really the spin dip is good there? what about the crap dip? is it any good? haaaaaaa. trina! i like your thinking. what about some slippers or gloves? i need some for this frigid weather
If your going to Trader Joe’s just get their spinach dip—it’s good.
liz!what do you want for christmas?
oh you meant crab dip? the crap dip sold me, i may not use your menu after all.
haaaaaaa
It all sounds sooooo wonderful. Your menu sounds perfect. You could add potatoes if you wanted, new potatoes steamed with butter and chives/scallions, or if you can find tiny ones roasted with olive oil and salt. But I don’t think you need to add anything, it sounds great.
liz has spinach dip and crap dip listed on the menu – i don’t like to eat spinach OR crap, BUT i know liz’s cooking so if she says it’s going to be good, i believe her. BRING ON THE SPINACH AND/OR CRAP!
For the suggestion, I would add something light and vegetabely to balance it all out- everything you have there is so rich and delicious. it might be a little much for one stomach to hold.
The invitation turned out cute!
so cute! can i just copy your menu for my holiday entertaining?
