While you’re enjoying Anita’s Citrus Tart from Aunt Nubby’s Kitchen, I just wanted to remind you that you still have time to enter our Southern Summer Nights giveaway sponsored through the generosity of Argenta Market of North Little Rock and Microplane of Russellville. I hope you’ll stop by on Facebook and Twitter(@microplane and @argentamarket) and show them your appreciation.
Speaking of appreciation. I appreciate your willingness to follow along with us this past week while we virtually entertained you at our progressive dinner party. If you’ve enjoyed to yourself, please let us know and we might just be able to invite you back for another round of festivities.
If you were hosting a #virtual party, what kind would it be? Who would you invite? Share your ideas, and maybe we can make that happen.
One last thought on appetizers before wrapping up and bidding you farewell: I try to offer something that will appeal to all of my guests – the carnivores and the vegetarians. I also know that if I can do something as simple as skewers of veggies and fresh fruits, then there will be something that even my gluten-free friends can have.
On the other hand, I know that I cannot possibly know everyone’s dietary restrictions. As a guest, I would never expect my host or hostess to cater the menu around me.
A few of my favorite sources for party fare:
Hor D’Oeuvres Handbook – Martha Stewart
The Art of the Tart – Tamasin Day – Lewis
Finger Food – Elsa Petersen – Schepelern
Screen Doors and Sweet Tea – Martha Hall Foes
The Southern Foodways Alliance – Sara Roahen and John T. Edge, eds.
Lazy Day and Beach Blankets – Helen Ridge, ed
What would you add to this list?
Thanks again. Be sure to stop by and visit the feature posts of your hosts this week and ENTER the giveaway. Good luck! I’d love to hear from you whether you win or not.
I’ll go put the coffee on while you savor the flavor of our week together:
