I have some FUN to share with you today! Last night I hosted my second annual Halloween dinner for some girlfriends. And let me tell you-we had a GREAT night! I strongly encourage you to grab some girlfriends STAT for a fun night out!
We had our Halloween dinner at Rye in downtown Mckinney and they could not have been nicer! I called several months ago to make the reservations…we decided upon the seven course tasting menu and I mentioned it was a Halloween-themed dinner. You guys! Rye went above and beyond about adding in so many extra special touches.
Last year-this was us…all decked out in our favorite costumes. This year the theme was black-out.
I arrived a bit early with balloons {which happened to get crazy tangled up so we made it work} and fun party favors {spiced pecan pumpkin bread kit and pecan pumpkin butter}.
I’m telling you…Rye can handle a theme. As I was waiting for my girls, they whipped this up to add to the tables.
I mentioned the black-out theme. Right? I ordered a few things from Amazon and Tab Slaughter {totally throwing him under the bus here} threw the box away! WAHHH! Just accidentally. So at the last minute I improvised in the outfit department.
Love these girlfriends of mine so much!
Do you recognize this girl?
The night began with a blue cheese/crab/arugula dip and chip.
Two different types of brussel sprouts were followed up with a fancy beef taco and then homemade pasta we couldn’t stop raving about.
The chef did such a great job on this one…check out that acorn squash full of veggies. Followed by a few more courses, I just forgot to take pictures of.
And dessert was a delicious caramel squash cheesecake {Yes! Squash?!} alongside the CUTEST set of smores served fireside {and it smelled just like a campfire!}.
I love these girls so very much! I’m telling you-grab some girlfriends, choose a theme, and head out to dinner ASAP! Promise you it’ll be a great time!
XO
