This past Wednesday Jamie and I hosted a small dinner party for the girls on my team at work and their significant others. Again I tried to keep with the fall theme with the table settings and menu. Everyone seemed to have a great time and enjoy the food. The table was set with navy place mats and our navy plates. I used dark orange napkins which had small leaves embroidered into them. The centerpiece was 4 candles in jars filled a quarter of the way with candy corn (they were my favorite-they were so pretty all lit up). I used small white pumpkins with orange card stock tied to the stem with green paper ribbon for the place cards. The menu included baked brie with a maple syrup and walnut sauce and gorgonzola and pear crostinis with a balsamic port glaze for the appetizers. The main dish was a pork tenderloin with cranapple stuffing, onion casserole (a delicious recipe from my Aunt) and rosemary potatoes. We finished the night with a warm apple crisp. I of course took lots of pictures (none of any people), here are some below.

Happy Fall!
