Test Run

This weekend was spent preparing for the baby shower next Saturday. Most importantly, we did a test run for one of the dips - warm curry chicken. Very tasty! I always do a taste test for any new recipes prior to a party. The menu has been finalized so there won't be any last minute guessing.

A whole slew of items on the checklist have been done. The kitchen cabinets under the sink are finally complete. All the doors but one are on and Jord is in the painful process of painting. The missing door somehow got overlooked at the store so we have to wait a few weeks until it comes in. Very annoying! All the Valentine's decorations are up and we even hung a handful of pictures and knick knacks. I did some Martha Stewart crafts to add to the festivity. The new lighting and curtains arrived today, so we'll have to hustle to get those up this week. It'll be a busy few days to finish everything up in time for our guests!

One of the Martha Stewart crafts - so cute!

  1. The curry chicken dips looks delicious! We make something similar for our NYE parties, the dip is spooned into those little puff pastry cups and they get crispy when baked. Yum.
