    My daughter when she was two once said she liked something she did 'lasterday night'. She is in her 40's now and we still refer to last evening as lasterday night. Also I love your videos especially when you are sitting in front of the longhorn pic...and the horns seem to be coming off your head. I always laugh at how cute it looks! Only you can pull off horns honey and look beautiful! Thanks for the dinner party advice...it was all spot on!

    1. Consider the Guest List.
    2. Entertainment according to the type of guests you are inviting. Conversation, indoor games, board, movie, makeover etc. It is not only about dinner but the whole evening.
    3. Decide Menu. Ask if they have any allergies.
    4. Layout. Chic , fun , rock you decide.
    5. Ambiance. Candle, flowers, light, temperature. Playlist.
    6. Seating arrangement. Casual, floor seating.
    7. Plate setting. Make some difference with name cards, beautifully plate setting, chicy brand for disposibles.

    How big are your dinner parties? I usually not up for hosting parties because of the size of our place. its about 700sqft which i think you mention your place is 500sqft but your place looks effortlessly roomy! How do you deal with that on group for about 15- 20 people?

I completely recommend doing something similar and aimed more towards your family than the sign we had which was mostly for 18yr old boys.

    Great ideas. Unfortunately, the dinner party has gone the way of the dinosaur due to the proliferation of self-imposed dietary restrictions. If you have allergies, I'll accommodate that of course, or if I know you're vegetarian, I'll make sure you have options, but I'm not catering to 12 different diets.

With my more formal friends and family that might be uncomfortable about something, I call and talk to them in advance to make sure they can feel comfortable.
