Chris's Dinner Menu Challenge *WINNER*
Random winner is Lisa (ScrappyDistractions) and points are awarded to the remaining 27 participants as well.  Thank you to all that joined my challenge!!

Welcome to the Dinner Menu Challenge.
 
If you have not picked your dinner choices, please go here viewtopic.php?f=350&t=261077   and pick your choices.  Please do not look down further in this thread before picking your choices.
 
I’ve included a couple of “twists” to this challenge to make it a little easier.
 
Twist #1: 
Since you are at dinner with a loved one, you may decide you’d rather have what is on someone else’s plate.  You may swap ONE (and only one) of your choices.  For instance you ordered the French Fries (Stars) but decided that you liked the Baked Potato (Twine) better, you may switch the stars for the twine.  But please remember you can only swap one of the courses.  Please list your original choice and then your swapped choice. 
 
 
Beverage:
Water - Misting or Splatters
Wine -  Mixed Media
Beer – Real or Faux Stitching
Soda – Decorative Border
Iced Tea - Banner or banner strips
 
Appetizer:
Buffalo Chicken Wings - Squares
Fried Calamari - Circles
Stuffed Mushrooms - Diamonds
Cheese & Crackers - Triangles
Veggies & Dip - Hexagons
 
Main Course:
Rib Eye Steak - Cardstock Background
Spaghetti & Meatballs – Patterned Paper Background
Shrimp and Scallops - Two Cardstocks Background
Chicken Parmesan   - Two Patterned Papers Background
Burger - One Patterned Paper and One Cardstock Background
 
Side Dish:
French Fries - Doily
Mac & Cheese - Hearts
Roasted Vegetables - Stars
Baked Potato - Twine
Sweet Potato - Tag
 
Salad:
Tossed - Something Green
Cobb - Something Yellow
Caesar - Something Brown
Coleslaw - Something Red
Pasta – Something White
 
Twist # 2:
Dessert: - Since desserts are such a fun indulgence, I’m asking you to pick your favorite (color, embellishment, paper, etc.) that was not listed on your menu to add to your creation.  Please list your “indulgence” when posting. 
Cake 
Ice Cream
Brownies
Pie
Fruit

I've never thought of that and no one asked the last time I did this, but I'm pretty flexible so that's fine if you do a double page layout for the challenge.

Love all the options!  It's going to take me a bit to get it all organized!  Can't wait to get started, but it isn't going to be today, that's for sure!  I am not keeping up too well! 
I am running away from my responsibilities,
and it feels good!
