The Party Dress
Our Greek evening went well. There were nine of us. Our friends, Joy and Andrew, Denise and Kevin, Jane and Dave and sister-in-law Leah.
My husband cooked. We had Houmous, Tsatsiki, Taramasalata, Greek Salad, Pitta Bread, Olives and sardines to start.
The main course was a Chicken, Tomato and Aubergine Stew with a Vegetable Bake for the veggies which was served with rice.
Dessert was mixed fresh fruit (mangoes, melons, blackberries, grapes) with Greek Yogurt, honey and flaked almonds.
We listened to the soundtrack of Mamma Mia (several times, Joy!), Johnny Cash, Song Bird and Essential Songs.
Here's some pictures including my dress....

Aww, you look amazing. Love the shoes!
Sounds like a great evening, and how wonderful that your husband cooked everything. Can I borrow him sometime?
This is my favorite picture of you so far, lovely.
Looks like you had a wonderful dinner party. There's something about a man who cooks that just wins my heart. Thanks for the menu.
Also noticed your hardwood floors in the kitchen. We have them also but most people here find it unusual.

Hi Darla
Thanks for your comments. We have lived in this house for 18 years and gradually replaced the flooring. It is so practical with the dog and the children but most of all I love the way the light bounces off it.
My husband is very good in the kitchen.He is the chef. I am the cook!
Love the purple dress- amazing!
We live in an older home and have hardwood floors too throughout- love them! You're right it is practical for our dog and child!
You look so pretty in this color purple! Looks like you had a wonderful evening :)
Look at those shoes!!! Fabulous!
Those shoes are fabulous. Truly and totally fabulous. My good friends next door are Greek and the best smells come from their home during dinnertime. Love Greek food!!
