Pasta, Pasta

Have you read Strega Nona by Tommi dePaola to your child? You know how Big Anthony wants pasta that continually comes from the magic pasta pot? Well, Saturday night, Big Anthony would have been in heaven!!  Pasta of all shapes and sizes filled the table along with some yummy desserts.

I don't know if you've ever hosted a Pasta Party....if you haven't you need to because it is oh so easy to do and makes for a wonderful time with family and friends.  Anyway, Saturday was our Ladies of Harley Pasta Party so I began last week gathering items for decorations.  I used red/white checked tablecloths (Oriental Trading has a roll which made it so easy...just measure and cut); empty wine bottles with red candles, jars of various uncooked pasta, fake ivy, some chef characters I found at Big Lots and a cooking plaque for the serving table centerpiece.  Nope nothing fancy but it did make the room festive for the party.

Everyone brought their favorite pasta dish or a dessert, I made a garden salad and brought three types of bread and ....VoilĂ , the party was on!!!  Here are a few photos from the party.

Casino Night!!


Last weekend Ladies of Harley sponsored a Casino Night.  With a few decorations, lots of poker chips and playing cards, the HOG Room magically transformed into a Casino for the night!!!  Everyone brought appetizers and desserts...let me say there are some awesome cooks in our Harley Owners Group Chapter!!

We had LCR, East/West Hold 'Em, Pokeno, Bingo, Blackjack, Craps, Roulette and Poker tables set up for the high rollers.  Everyone began the night with a $100 poker chip and then the fun started.  Now the "house" did have to advance a few people an extra $100.....glad there wasn't any real money on the line!!  Hahahaha!!!

The night was full of fun and laughter...good times!!!
