Good food and some crafting…

Today I had a few friends over for an impromptu cooking night and the food turned out great. We made a huge antipasto salad with a yummy tomato-based vinaigrette and the Pioneer Women’s baked lemon pasta. Both recipes were fantastic. We’ll be having the leftover pasta with grilled chicken tomorrow night for sure.

After dinner I got some help on a project for my pumpkin carving party later this month. A box of canning jars from Wally World, candles, candy corn and supplies from around the house…

…and waala, cuteness for the party tables. What do you think?

While we were crafting away, Ruby just made herself at home.

PS...no, we didn't adopt a new furbaby. Ruby is my friend's dog who was over for a visit. Lauren loves to play with her.
