Top Tip For A Dinner Party

[mrs_overall]

It is important to create a good impression and create the right ambience when hosting a dinner party. Always remember to serve the chicken nuggets on a plate and NEVER straight from the box

But the plastic cutlery will add a real touch of class, I've found !

And strew a few marigold petals across the plate for that Hugh Fernley-effall

And don't forget the little packets of finger wipes and the paper packets of pepper and salt!

[mrs_overall]

Folks, don't forget to put a fresh layer of newspaper on your dining table as well

And don't forget the tinned peas.

Bluetoffee- they can be easily obtained for free from KFC

A girl after my own heart Mrs O!

[mrs_overall]

I also find that the nicest serviettes can be "obtained" from Costa Coffee

Thanks mrs O, I realise now where I have been going wrong. Will you be sharing some other tips, or maybe writing a book? x

if you buy large sausage rolls you can cut them into 6 portions .
and i ensure each guest has a twiglet.
night lights in jam jars adds a nice touch .

[mrs_overall]

yoga, a book may be in the offing. My last book was well received and a review in the local paper said
once I put this book down I couldn't pick it up

[mrs_overall]

mallyh - twiglets are easy. Simply snip a few small twigs from a tree and marinade them in Marmite

[DTCwordfan]

Don't forget the Minty broon sauce either.....and probably Irn Bru would make for a very nice Chateau d'Abo Rigines Armapit to accompany it.

runs for the door

[mrs_overall]

DTC, I draw the line at broon sauce.
I do have standards you know! (Even if they are fairly low lol)

[jim360]

Some very good advice here and I'll be sure to keep it in mind. What an evening gness will have as and when she visits now that I'm armed with how to put on a proper dinner!

[woofgang]

if serving sauces, use the new sachets that you have nicked. Don't be stingy and offer the half used ones

[DTCwordfan]

Go the back of any restaurant and look in the bins; some excellent salad to be had.

[lady-janine]

DTC - i doubt that that is 'igh class enough for Mrs Overthere.
