Dinner Parties



I dont enjoy cooking. But i do enjoy having family and/or friends to gather around dinner table.
I do like to have little family traditions which bonds us. I guess this joy is something i inherited from my late granfather. He used to cherish family get-togethers so much. Thanks to him, new year's eve has a special meaning for us. That day , we gather around a big table to eat and enjoy together like the way we do in eids and ramadan. This year is two time special as we will have my fiance as the new member of our family.

As always i sat down weeks before to collect recipes and make shopping lists to finalize the menu and other details. (Yes cooking is not something i enjoy as a chore but it is something i cherish for this kind of gatherings). This is not an easy job and needs good organization skills so i designed a very simple sheet to help you organize your special dinner party. You can write down the menu, shopping list, drinks and guest list. It is not perfect but it sure will make your planning easier...

You can download the file here.
