I have forwarded to Kristin the winners chosen by Random Number Generator and once she approves, I will announce the winners and send out the GCs tomorrow.
THANK YOU ALL FOR JOINING ME IN MY FIRST NSD HOSTESS CHALLENGE.
Welcome to the Dinner Menu Challenge.
If you have not picked your dinner choices, please go here viewtopic.php?f=348&t=256094 and pick your choices.
I’ve included a couple of “twists” to this challenge to make it a little easier. EDIT: You must use everything on your menu but you are not limited to just those items.
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 - Real or Faux Stitching
Wine - Misting or Splatters
Beer – Journaling Strips
Soda - Banner or banner strips
Iced Tea - Decorative Border
Appetizer:
Buffalo Chicken Wings - Hexagons
Fried Calamari - Diamonds
Stuffed Mushrooms - Circles
Cheese & Crackers - Triangles
Veggies & Dip - Squares
Main Course:

Twist # 2:

My menu choices were:

Fried Calamari - Diamonds
Shrimp and Scallops - Two Patterned Papers Background

I decided I liked the Stuffed Mushrooms better than the Fried Calamari so I swapped my diamonds for circles.

Very clever Chris! The one girl I came cropping with said (after I read off the beverages ) "for what? I want to pick what I scrap then I'll drink that beverage." Omg. Ok. Got mine! Thanks!
Ok so here were my choices (I forgot salad last time)
Water: real/faux stitching
Cheese/crackers: Triangles ()
Burger: 1 pattern paper, 1 cardstock background
MacNCheese hearts
Pasta: something white
Brownies: I love stars and wood veneers so probably one of those.
